Match the List-I and List-II and select the correct answer from the codes given below :

List-IList-II
(a) Acid rain(1) CHCl2 CHF2
(b) Photochemical smog(2) CO
(c) Combination with hemoglobin(3) CO2
(d) Depletion of ozone(4) Unsaturated hydrocarbons

  • A.a-2, b-3, c-4, d-1
  • B.a-3, b-4, c-2, d-1
  • C.a-2, b-1, c-4, d-3
  • D.a-2, b-3, c-1, d-4

Answer: B

The correct matching is a-3, b-4, c-2, d-1.

  1. Acid rain: among the listed gases, CO2 dissolves in rain to form carbonic acid; the stronger acids come mainly from sulphur and nitrogen oxides.
  2. Photochemical smog forms when sunlight acts on nitrogen oxides and unsaturated hydrocarbons, producing ozone and PAN.
  3. Carbon monoxide combines with haemoglobin to form carboxyhaemoglobin and blocks oxygen transport.
  4. Ozone depletion is caused by chlorine from halogenated compounds such as the listed CHCl2CHF2.

Options A, C and D all link CO with acid rain, so only option B fits.
