Read the following statements regarding the PAN (Peroxyacyl nitrates) and select the correct ones. (i) It is a secondary pollutant present in photochemical smog. (ii) It is produced by photochemical reactions between hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides in the presence of sulight or UV radiations. (iii) It is thermally unstable and decomposes into peroxyethanoyl radicals and nitrogen dioxide gas. (iv) It is a lacrymatory substance, causing irritation of eyes.

Which of the following statements are correct ? (i) Catalytic converters convert unburnt hydrocarbons into CO_(2) and H_(2)O . (ii) The catalytic converter converts carbon monoxide and nitric oxide into CO_(2) and N_(2) . (iii) Automobiles are the major cause of atmospheric pollution in the world. (iv) Proper maintenance of automobiles along with the use of lead-free petrol or diesel cannot reduce the pollutants they emit. (v) In India, the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act came into force in 1981 amended in 1987 to include noise as air pollutants.

Given below are two statements: Statement I: An allotrope of oxygen is an important intermediate in the formation of reducing smog Statement II : Gases such as oxides of nitrogen and sulphur present in troposphere contribute to the formation of photochemical smog. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Oxidation is de-electronation whereas reduction is electronation. Oxidants are the substances which oxidise others and reduced themselves. On the other hand reductants are the substances which reduce others and oxidised themselves. The oxidation number of an element in a compound decides its nature to act as oxidant or reductant. Oxidation-reduction occur simultaneously and the overal chemical change is called redox reaction. Redox reactions are of three types : (i) Intermolecular erdox reactions, (ii) Auto-redox or disproportionation reaction, and (iii) Intramolecular redox reactions. Select the species which can act as oxidant and reductant both : (I) H_(2)SO_(3) , (II) H_(2)O_(2) , (III) O_(3) , (IV) HNO_(3) , (V) Cl_(2)
