The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Smog**: Smog is a type of air pollution that is a mixture of smoke and fog. It typically occurs in urban areas where there are high levels of pollution. 2. **Components of Smog**: Smog contains both primary and secondary pollutants. Primary pollutants include particulate matter such as dust and pollen, while secondary pollutants include nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides. 3. **Formation of Smog**: The formation of smog is primarily associated with the combination of fog (which consists of tiny water droplets in the air) and air pollutants. 4. **Analyzing the Options**: - Option A: Water combines with oxygen to form hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) - not related to smog. - Option B: Hydrogen (H2) combines with oxygen to form water - not related to smog. - Option C: Water combines with hydrogen peroxide to form sulfurous acid (H2SO3) - not related to smog. - Option D: Smog combines with fog to form smog - this is the correct option. 5. **Conclusion**: The correct answer is that smog is formed when smog combines with fog. **Final Answer**: Smog is formed when smog combines with fog (Option D). ---
