प्रश्न
Dinitrogen and dioxygen are main constituents of air but these do not react with each other to form oxides of nitrogen because ______.
विकल्प
the reaction is endothermic and requires very high temperature.
the reaction can be initiated only in presence of a catalyst.
oxides of nitrogen are unstable.
N2 and O2 are unreactive.
उत्तर
Dinitrogen and dioxygen are main constituents of air but these do not react with each other to form oxides of nitrogen because the reaction is endothermic and requires very high temperature.
Explanation:
Major compounds of atmosphere are dinitrogen, dioxygen and water vapour.
N2 = 78.08%, O2 = 20.95%
Both dinitrogen and dioxygen do not react with each other as nitrogen is an inactive gas. The triple bond in N2 is very stable and its dissociation energy is very high. Both react with each other at very high temperature.
\[\ce{N2(g) + O2(g) ->[3000° C] 2NO(g)}\]

The main sources of noise pollution are various factories, mechanized construction and demolition Works, automobiles and aircraft, etc. There may be added periodical but polluting noise from sirens, loudspeakers used in various festivals, programmes associated with community activities. The level of steady noise is measured by sound level expressed in terms of decibels (dB). Of all these sources, the biggest nuisance is the noise produced by traffic, because its intensity and nature depend upon factors, such as the type of aircraft, vehicle, train and the condition of road, as well as, that of vehicle (in case of automobiles). In sea traffic, the noise pollution is confined to the harbour due to loading and unloading activities being carried. Industries cause noise pollution but with varying intensity depending upon the type of industry. Noise pollution is location specific and its intensity declines with increase in distance from the source' of pollution, i.e. industrial areas, arteries of transportation, airport, etc. Noise Pollution is hazardous in many metropolitan and big cities in India. |
- Explain the meaning of noise pollution.
- Why is noise pollution hazardous in metropolitan cities in India?
- "Noise pollution is location specific." Explain with argument.
