The atmosphere is __ percent nitrogen gas.

1

Gasoline-powered vehicles give off more particulate matter, in the form of black smoke, than diesel-powered vehicles.

1

Particulate matter ranges in size from ( 0.01, 1, 0.1, 0.001 ) micrometers to ( 100, 1000, 10.1, 100.001 ) micrometers

Particulate matter larger than micrometers is usually filtered out by the noise and throat and is not regulated by the EPA.
