Secondary pollutants include ozone, which is formed when hydrocarbons (HC) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) combine in the presence of sunlight.

Whereas Primary pollutant are those pollutants that are directly emitted from their sources, like CO2, CO, SO2 as these gases are directly emitted form burning of fossil fuels.

Acid rain, which is formed when sulfur dioxide or nitrogen oxides react with water, sulfuric acid etc.

Hence, Acidrain is a secondary air pollutant.

An intensive property is a physical quantity whose value does not depend on the amount of the substance for which it is measured. For example, the temperature of a system in thermal equilibrium is the same as the temperature of any part of it. If the system is divided the temperature of each subsystem is identical. The same applies to the density of a homogeneous system, if the system is divided in half, the mass and the volume change in the identical ratio and the density remains unchanged. Additionally, the boiling point of a substance is another example of an intensive property. For example, the boiling point for water is 100 °C at a pressure of one atmosphere, a fact which remains true regardless of quantity.
