The correct option is D AlI of the above
- Smog is a type of severe air pollution.
- The pollutants in photochemical smog are formed in a complex process that begins with the emission of nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from automobile tailpipes.
- These combine with both moisture in the air and oxygen to form ozone, and further reactions produce a variety of organic gases, including peroxyacetyl nitrates (PANs), which cause severe eye irritation in high concentrations.
- Hence, The basic component of the smog may be PAN, Ozone and PBN.
- So, the correct answer is 'all of the above'.
