Detailed Solution

Bad ozone in the troposphere is a colorless and highly irritating gas that forms just above the earth's surface. It is called a secondary pollutant because it is produced when two primary pollutants react in sunlight and stagnant air. These two primary pollutants are nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
