Solution

The correct option is D All of these
  1. CNG produces 45% fewer hydrocarbons than gasoline.
  2. Unleaded petrol doesn't produce lead in the atmosphere.
  3. Catalytic converter reduces emissions of three harmful compounds found in car exhaust which are
  • Carbon monoxide (a poisonous gas)
  • Nitrogen oxides (a cause of smog and acid rain)
  • Hydrocarbons (a cause of smog)
  • So, the correct option is 'All of these'.
