Living in the atmosphere of CO is dangerous because it :
1. Combines with O2 present inside to form CO2
2. Reduces organic matter of tissues.
3. Combines with haemoglobin and makes it incapable to absorb oxygen.
4. Dilutes the blood.
The reaction/s involved during the formation of photochemical smog are:
\(1. \space NO_2(g) \rightarrow NO(g) + \stackrel{\cdot}{O(g)}\)
\(2. \stackrel{\cdot}{O(g)} + O_2(g) \rightarrow O_3(g)\)
\(3.\space O_3(g) + NO(g) \rightarrow NO_2(g) + O_2(g)\)
4. All of the above
The incorrect statement about carbon monoxide is-
1. | It reduces the oxygen-carrying ability of blood. |
2. | The carboxyhaemoglobin (haemoglobin bound to CO) is less stable than oxyhaemoglobin. |
3. | It is produced due to incomplete combustion. |
4. | It forms carboxyhaemoglobin. |
The gas that damages the ozone layer is -
1. CFCs
2. CO2
3. CH4
4. SO2
Ozone is a very toxic gas and a strong oxidizing agent. It is still useful for life on earth :
1. because it traps harmful UV-rays.
2. because it balances global warming.
3. because it traps harmful X-rays.
4. because it traps harmful -rays.
