The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to evaluate each statement one by one to determine which are correct. ### Step 1: Evaluate Statement A **Statement A:** Ammonium salts produce haze in the atmosphere. - **Analysis:** Ammonium salts can contribute to the formation of aerosols and particulate matter in the atmosphere, which can lead to haze. This statement is **true**. ### Step 2: Evaluate Statement B **Statement B:** Ozone gets produced when atmospheric oxygen reacts with chlorine radicals. - **Analysis:** Ozone (O3) is primarily formed through a reaction involving oxygen molecules (O2) and ultraviolet light, not directly from chlorine radicals. Chlorine can react with ozone, but it does not produce ozone. Therefore, this statement is **false**. ### Step 3: Evaluate Statement C **Statement C:** Polychlorinated biphenyls act as cleansing solvents. - **Analysis:** Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are indeed used as solvents and have been used in various industrial applications, including as cleaning agents. This statement is **true**. ### Step 4: Evaluate Statement D **Statement D:** 'Bile baby' syndrome occurs due to the presence of excess of sulphate ions in water. - **Analysis:** The correct term is "blue baby syndrome," which is caused by excessive nitrate ions in water, not sulfate ions. Therefore, this statement is **false**. ### Conclusion From the evaluations: - Statement A: True - Statement B: False - Statement C: True - Statement D: False The correct statements are A and C. ### Final Answer The correct answer is **Option 2** (A and C are true). ---

Given below are two statements : Statement I : Chlorofluoro carbons breakdown by radiation in the visible energy region and release chlorine gas in the atmosphere which then reacts with stratospheric ozone. Statement II : Atmospheric ozone reacts with nitric oxide to give nitrogen and oxygen gases, which add to the atmosphere. For the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below :

When heathly earth's stratosphere contains a low concentration of ozone (O_(3)) that absorbs potentially harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiations by the cycle shown below: Chloroflouro carbon refrigerants, such as freon 12(CF_(2)Cl_(2)) , are stable in lower atmosphere but in the stratosphere, they absorb high energy UV radiation to generate chlorine radicals. CF_(2)Cl_(2) overset(hv)(to) CF_(2)Cl+Cl The presence of small number of chlorine radicals appears to lower ozone concentrations dramatically. The following reactions are all known to be exothermic (except the one requiring light) and to have high rate constant. A:Cl-O-O-Cloverset(hv)(to)O_(2)+2Cl^(*) B: Cl_O^(*)+O to O_(2)+Cl^(*) C:Cl^(*)+O_(3) to Cl-O^(*)+O_(2) D:2Cl-O^(*) to Cl-O-O-Cl Q. Inceased UV radiations due to hole in ozone layer:

Read the passage given below and answer the question: The transition metals when exposed to oxygen at low and intermediate temperatures form thin, protective oxide films of up to some thousands of Angstroms in thickness. Transition metal oxides lie between the extremes of ionic and covalent binary compounds formed by elements from the left or right side of the periodic table. They range from metallic to semiconducting and deviate by both large and small degrees from stoichiometry. Since d- electron bonding levels are involved, the cations exist in various valence states and hence give rise to a large number of oxides. The crystal structures are often classified by considering a cubic or hexagonal close-packed lattice of one set of ions with the other set of ions filling the octahedral or tetrahedral interstices. The actual oxide structures, however, generally show departures from such regular arrays due in part to distortions caused by packing of ions of different size and to ligand field effects. These distortions depend not only on the number of d-electrons but also on the valence and the position of the transition metal in a period or group. (source: Smeltzer, W. W., & Young, D. J. (1975). Oxidation properties of transition metals. Progress in Solid State Chemistry, 10, 17-54.) In the following question, a statement of assertion followed by a statement of reason is given. Choose the correct answer out of the choices on the basis of the above passage. Assertion: Cations of transition elements occur in various valence states Reason: Large number of oxides of transition elements are possible.
