Consider the following reactions involving some atmospheric pollutants:
$NO + O_3 \rightarrow NO_2 + O_2$
$NO_2 \xrightarrow{h \nu} NO + O$
$O + O_2 \rightarrow O_3$
$4 NO_2 + O_2 + 2 H_2 O \longrightarrow 4 HNO_3$
$3 CH_4 + 2 O_3 \longrightarrow 3 H_2 C = O + 3 H_2 O$
Based on the above,the formation of formaldehyde from methane in the atmosphere will be controlled by:

  • A
    Only $O_3$
  • B
    $O_3$ and $NO_2$
  • C
    $O_3, NO$ and $NO_2$
  • D
    $NO$ and $NO_2$
