Which statement about aerosols and clouds is the most accurate?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Some aerosols can become nuclei for cloud droplets
Aerosols are tiny solid or liquid particles suspended in air. Many of them, such as suitable dust, salt or smoke particles, provide surfaces on which water vapour can condense, so they act as cloud-condensation nuclei. Their effects can vary, but they do not always destroy clouds. Option A is therefore correct; B, C and D make absolute statements that contradict atmospheric observations.
