18
Q

It is an odorless, colorless gas composed of three oxygen atoms.

[common air pollutants]

A

Ozone — Ground-level-zone

19
Q

it is not usually emitted directly into the air but at ground level and is created by a chemical reaction between oxides of nitrogen and volatile organic compound (VOC) in the presence of heat and sunlight.
