Question
In order to determine the rate of photosynthesis (the conversion by plants of carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen), the oxygen gas emitted by an aquatic plant is collected over water at a temperature of 293 K and a total pressure of 755.2 mmHg. Over a specific time period, a total of 1.02 L of gas is collected. What mass of oxygen gas (in grams) forms?

- If there are 1.5 x 109 cows each "passing" on the average 240. Liters of CH4 (g) per day, in one day if all of that CH4 were to be safely collected and undergo a controlled but complete combustion reaction, how many grams of CO2 would contribute to the Greenhouse effect of the Earth? You will first need to have the combustion reaction of CH4.
