Question-1
Which one of the following pairs of gases are the major cause of "greenhouse effect"?
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
Answer: (d)
Nitrous oxide is commonly known as laughing gas or sweet air. It is a chemical compound with formula $N_2O$. It is also a major greenhouse gas and air pollutant along with $CO_2$ with tremendous global warming potential. When compared to $CO_2, N_2O$ has 310 times the ability to trap heat in the atmosphere. $N_2$O is produced naturally in the soil during the microbial processes of nitrification and denitrification. Carbon dioxide from coal-fired power stations and car exhausts, is the main greenhouse gas.

E. Fluoride | 5. Black-foot disease |
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
Question-3
Sounds above what level are considered hazardous noise pollution?
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
Answer: (d)
Noise level are expressed on a logarithmic scale of decibels. The baseline noise levels in the community vary around 40 dB. International standards prescribe a maximum of 50 dB for day and 40 dB for nighttime in a residential area. Noise over 115 dB is regarded as highly avoidable. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends an industrial noise limit of 75 dB.

(c)
(d)
Answer: (b)
Catalytic converters contain costly metals like rhodium and platinum-palladium as catalysts, and when exhaust gases passes to fitted catalytic converter, the unburnt hydro carbons that are oxidised into water and carbon dioxide.
