Nitrogen monoxide, NO, is a primary pollutant produced by petrol engines and is found in their exhaust gases. Which reaction occurs in a catalytic converter and decreases the emission of nitrogen monoxide?

ANO(g) + CO(g) → NO₂(g) + C(s)
BNO(g) + CO₂(g) → NO₂(g) + CO(g)
C2NO(g) + 2CO(g) → N₂(g) + 2CO₂(g)
D2NO(g) + CO₂(g) → 2NO₂(g) + C(s)

✓ Correct answer

C: 2NO(g) + 2CO(g) → N₂(g) + 2CO₂(g)
