Which one of the following is not correctly matched? (Green House Gas — Source)

(B) Chlorofluorocarbon — Automobiles
(C) Nitrous Oxide — Waterlogged Paddy fields
(D) Sulphur dioxide — Brick Kilns
- AA
- BB
- CC
- DD
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: (b) B
Explanation
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are released mainly from refrigerants and aerosols, not from automobiles, so (B) is wrongly matched.
Correct pairs: Carbon dioxide from thermal power stations, Nitrous oxide from waterlogged paddy fields, and Sulphur dioxide from brick kilns.
Automobiles chiefly emit CO, NOx and hydrocarbons, not CFCs.
