The irritant red haze in traffic and congested places is due to
- A \(\mathrm{CO}_2\)
- B \(\mathrm{O}_3\)
- C \(\mathrm{SO}_x\) (oxides of sulphur)
- D \(\mathrm{NO}_x\) (oxides of nitrogen)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(\mathrm{NO}_x\) (oxides of nitrogen)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The irritant red haze in traffic and congested places is due to the oxides of nitrogen. Nitrogen oxide has a deep red colour and poisonous gas. When, it is mixed with aerosols, it causes reddish brown colour of haze in congested places. Thus, option (4) is correct.
