Match List-I with List-II.

Match List-I with List-II.

Column I

  • A. $2SO_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow2SO_3(g)$
  • B. $HOCl(g)\xrightarrow{h\nu}\dot{O}H+\dot{C}l$
  • C. $CaCO_3+H_2SO_4\rightarrow CaSO_4+H_2O+CO_2$
  • D. $NO_2(g)\xrightarrow{h\nu}NO(g)+O(g)$

Column II

  • I. Acid rain
  • II. Smog
  • III. Ozone depletion
  • IV. Tropospheric pollution

Correct answer: A → IV, B → III, C → I, D → II

Detailed Solution

$2SO_2(g) + O_2(g) \rightarrow 2SO_3(g)$ – tropospheric pollution $HOCl(g) \xrightarrow{h\nu} \dot{O}H + \dot{C}l$ – ozone depletion $CaCO_3 + H_2SO_4 \rightarrow CaSO_4 + H_2O + CO_2$ – acid rain $NO_2(g) \xrightarrow{h\nu} NO(g) + O(g)$ – smog Correct match: A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II.
