Nitrogen dioxide

because of greenhouse gasses, including carbon dioxide 2. However, carbon dioxide is essential for the photosynthesis of plants, allowing plants to be successful autotrophs by using carbon dioxide, water, and energy from the sun to produce glucose and oxygen. One of the main sources of photosynthesis in a plant is in the leaves. When leaves decompose they release the carbon dioxide used in photosynthesis. It is important to figure out how much carbon dioxide is emitted from leaf decomposition in…

global warming. Scientist think that human is the caused of global warming. Human like to burn fossil fuel by driving car and run factories. The most common fossil fuel that human burn are coal and oil which can release carbon dioxide. Not only fossil fuel can release carbon dioxide there is other stuff too. Like when humans cut…

territory for their survival. Water and sunlight are required for photosynthesis, the process of creating energy for organismal activity. Water is necessary for transpiration, the process of exchanging water from inside the plant’s stomata with carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Sunlight facilitates this process by being converted to…

control emissions from coal and oil combustion from energy and industrial production bring waste gases in contact with a sorbent that reacts and absorbs the sulfur dioxide. Another option is changing the way power plants burn coal and fossil fuels to reduce the nitrogen oxide created from the combustion. Methods to help mitigate nitrogen oxide emissions from cars is by the use of catalytic converters attached to the exhaust system that transform NO2 and carbon monoxide into CO2 and water. The…

Acid rain is any form of precipitation that has unusually high acidity (a pH level below 5.6) and caused by the transformation of nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide into secondary pollutants. pH is is a scale used that measures the acidity of liquids and ranged from 0 to 14. The lower the number, the higher acidity, or the higher concentration of hydrogen ions. 0-5 is considered acidic and as you move up to 7, this indicates the substance is neutral. The higher numbers on the scale indicate…

from carbon dioxide and water. There are two main process in photosynthesis. (Light reaction and dark reaction) Light reactions produce organic energy molecules (ATP and NADPH). Chlorophyll which is in chloroplast decomposes water which are absorbed from roots by light energy. Therefore water are decomposed into electrons and proton, and oxygen molecules are released into the atmosphere. This process is light reactions. On the other hand, dark reaction produces glucose from carbon dioxide which…

carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, ozone, chlorofluorocarbons and hydrofluorocarbons. Water vapour is also a major greenhouse gas, but its concentration in the atmosphere is not influenced directly by human activities.” (Climate Change in Australia, 2015). The future human civilisation will be threatened by rising atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and methane. Roughly, agriculture activities were worth 15% of the global…

carbon dioxide increased at a steady rate. The increase shows the air mixed with carbon dioxide that was created by fossil fuels. 5b.) The excess atmospheric carbon dioxide goes into plants, soil, and warms the temperature. The temperature of the atmosphere depends on which pole the location of the site is. Because Mauna Loa observatory is a hot island, the higher carbon dioxide increases. When carbon dioxide reaches the plants and soil, photosynthesis occurs to intake carbon dioxide from the…

ensuring components such as carbon and nitrogen are recycled in the environment. A balanced ecosystem is achieved when soil microbial ecology is used to evaluate the impact of the carbon cycle. Soil microbes have a complicated and complex community. It is easily affected by global climate changes…

Use of Carbon Compounds as Fuel: Carbon based fuels: What makes a good fuel? What are these fuels used for? Combustion effects good bad The main carbon based gases in use today are coal, gasoline and natural gas. Coal: The chemical formula of coal is C135H96O9NS. Nearly 85% of Coal is made up of Carbon and the rest is mainly hydrogen and oxygen. Coal doesn’t have a melting point. Like all fossil and biofuels, all different kinds of coal produce CO2 when burned. Coal energy quality varies…
