GeneralClass 12AllAnswered 27 Mar 2026
Answer
Peroxyacyl nitrates are chemical compounds which are markedly present in photochemical smog. They irritate lung surfaces and also the eye. Besides they are believed to be mutagenic and a possible cause of skin cancer in people exposed to them. They are secondary pollutants meaning they are not emitted directly rather are released as volatile organic compounds from power plants or internal combustion engines. Ultra violet light catalyses the reaction that leads to formation of peroxyacyl nitrates.
