Carbon dioxide

Sulfur dioxide

Combustion of fuel and natural gas.

Carbon monoxide

Incomplete combustion of fossil fuel.

Nitrogen oxide

Reaction of nitrogen with oxygen in car engine


Carbon monoxide is the product of incomplete
combustion in engine. Carbon dioxide is produced
when the carbon and oxygen fully react in high
temperatures of car engines, complete
combustion of fossil fuels.

Carbon monoxide is toxic, it can kill people. Carbon dioxide cause global
warming.

Nitrogen and oxygen present in air react in high temperatures of car


engines.
Nitrogen oxide reacts with oxygen to form Nitrogen dioxide.

Acid rain is formed which lowers the ph of rivers and lakes killing aquatic
animals.

Modern motor vehicles have catalytic converters. They convert the


harmful gases produced into less harmful gases. The following
reaction takes place: 2NO+2CO-> 2CO2+ N2
