Solution

The correct option is C when fuels are burnt.
The word smog was coined to describe the combination of smoke and fog.

Smoke+FogSmog

The name was proposed to describe the phenomenon which occurred due to condensation of some kind of fog on the carbon particles present in the smoke produced due to combustion of fuels like coal and petroleum.

Thus, the atmospheric pollutants or gases that form smog are released in the air when fuels are burnt.

Hence, the correct option is B
