The correct Answer is:
To solve the matching question regarding pollutants and their removal methods, we will analyze each pollutant and identify the appropriate removal method. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the first pollutant: CO₂** - CO₂ is best removed through **afforestation**. Trees absorb CO₂ during photosynthesis, thus reducing its concentration in the atmosphere. - **Match:** A) CO₂ → 3) Afforestation 2. **Identify the second pollutant: Particulate Matter** - Particulate matter is effectively removed by an **electrostatic precipitator**. This device uses electrostatic charges to remove particles from gases, such as smoke. - **Match:** B) Particulate Matter → 5) Electrostatic Precipitator 3. **Identify the third pollutant: CO (Carbon Monoxide)** - Carbon monoxide is removed using a **catalytic converter**. This device converts CO into CO₂, which is less toxic. - **Match:** C) CO → 1) Catalytic Converter 4. **Identify the fourth pollutant: SO₂ (Sulfur Dioxide)** - SO₂ is removed by a **scrubber**. In this process, SO₂ reacts with a spray of limestone and water, converting it into less harmful substances. - **Match:** D) SO₂ → 2) Scrubber ### Final Matches: - A) CO₂ → 3) Afforestation - B) Particulate Matter → 5) Electrostatic Precipitator - C) CO → 1) Catalytic Converter - D) SO₂ → 2) Scrubber ### Conclusion: The correct matches are: - A - 3 - B - 5 - C - 1 - D - 2
