VOCs and Tropospheric Ozone Formation
Which statement best explains the role of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) in the persistence of tropospheric ozone in photochemical smog?
A
VOCs absorb UV radiation, preventing ozone breakdown in the troposphere
B
VOCs directly produce ozone through photolysis reactions
C
VOCs act as catalysts, increasing the rate of ozone formation without being consumed
D
VOCs react with NOx to regenerate ozone, prolonging its presence in the atmosphere
