Carbon dioxide is a colorless odorless gas why is it considered a pollutant?
2 answers:
Carbon dioxide is a gas having chemical formula , a gas which exhaled by humans and inhaled by plants. It is also emitted from the sources such as cement production and combustion of fossil fuels. It is also known as greenhouse gas associated with acidification of ocean.
Carbon dioxide with other gases acts like a blanket of Earth which absorbs infrared radiations emitted from the sun and thus, preventing the escaping of these rays into the outer space which results in the gradual heating of Earth's surface and atmosphere i.e. increase in temperature of Earth. This process is known as Global Warming.
Hence, carbon dioxide is responsible for the increase in warming of the atmosphere i.e. option (D).

Answer:
Explanation:
An electrophilic addition reaction occurs when an electrophile attacks a substrate, with the end result being the inclusion of one or many comparatively straightforward molecules along with multiple bonds.
In the given question, the hydrogen bromide provides the electrophile while the bromide is the nucleophile. The mechanism proceeds with the attack of the electrophile on the carbon, followed by deprotonation. This process is continued with a formation of carbocation and the bromide(nucleophile) finally bonds to the carbocation to form a stable product.
The first diagram showcases the possible various starting molecules for the synthesis while the second diagram illustrates their mechanism.
