AIR POLLUTION When harmful substances build up in the air to harmful levels Most is the result of human activities Some from natural activities (volcanoes, dust, pollen, spores)

PRIMARY POLLUTANTS Put directly into the air from human activity Chart p 304 Carbon Monoxide Nitrogen Oxides Sulfur Dioxide Volatile Organic Compounds Particulate Matter

PM CO SO VOC NO

Secondary Pollutants Form when primary pollutants interact Chemical reaction between primary pollutants
