Answer»

The correct option is (d) 1, 2 and 3.

• The vehicular exhausts consists of all the above mentioned gases, the only difference is the amount of these gases.

• Although, majority of vehicular exhausts consists of Carbon dioxide ( because the main product of the combustion of fossil fuel is carbon dioxide and water vapour).

• But there's presence of small amount of Carbon monoxide which is produced if incomplete combustion of fuel takes place.

• Sulphur dioxide is produced because sulphur is an active component of lead which is added in petrol as an anti knocking agent.

• Vehicular exhausts also consists of Oxides of nitrogen like Dinitrogen oxide, PAN, etc.
