    B CO, CO₂, and NO₂ at low temperature. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C CO, O₂ and peroxy acetyl nitrate in the presence of Sunlight. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D NO₂, O₃ and peroxy acetyl nitrate in the presence of sunlight. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Photochemical smog is a unique type of air pollution which is caused by reactions between sunlight and pollutants like hydocarbons and nitrogen dioxide (NO and NO₂). other components of the photochemical smog include Ozone(O₃) formaldehyde, peroxy benzoyl nitrate (PBzN), peroxy acetyl nitrate (PAN) and acrolein.
