Its B, S+O2-->SO2 (which acts as an air pollutant.)

Some coal emits sulfur when it is burned and this Sulfur forms sulfur dioxide, which acts as an air pollutant.

What is an oxidation?

Oxidation is a process in which addition of oxygen takes place in the presence of any oxidizing agent.

When we burn coal then the amount of sulphur presents in the coal will changes into the sulphur dioxide in the presence of atmospheric oxygen by the oxidation process as:

S + O₂ → SO₂

And this sulphur dioxide wis responsible for the acid rain and air pollution.

Hence option (B) is correct.
