OA is option 3
Statements B and C are incorrect. Statement B is incorrect because 'to break apart' is incorrect idiom. It should be "making them break apart"- the verb 'make' is not followed by an infinitive (to+verb). E.g. It makes me cry and not It makes me to cry.
Statement C is incorrect in 'many an offending chemicals'. The correct versions will be 'many offending chemicals (have)' or many an offending chemical (has)'. This eliminates options 2 and 4. Statements A and D are both correct. Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
I felt E to be wrong. But as per answer it is correct 
should it not be "It will still take several decades before these substances disappear from the atmosphere" ??
@[150242:prakash_miku] sir .. please explain

@prakash_miku sir .. please explain
1. with 'make' we do not use 'to'. e.g.: ..makes me go crazy!!
2. '..decades before these substances have disappeared from the atmosphere. ' when we wish to convey/express the time period before the completion of a future action/event we use verb-I + past participle (for next clause). e.g: there is still time left before he has achieved his goals. time before i have cleared cat. wait before it is done.
ps: pardon if something is incorrect but i think the point is clear. also, some grammatical rules r a little difficult to digest at first. ;)
