Solution

The correct options are
A Respiratory problems
B Acid rain
C Reduced visibility
  • In an oil refinery, the pollutants are oxides of sulphur and nitrogen which are released to the atmosphere.
  • These oxides are very harmful which cause acid rain and many serious health problems such as permanent lung damage and other respiratory problems.
  • The smoke produced may combine with fog in the air to form smog which can reduce visibility.
