Today 1750 Ice Agearrow_forwardThe atmosphere of Mars is 96% CO2, with a pressure of approximately 6 * 10−3 atm at the surface. Based on measurements taken over a period of several years by the Rover Environmental Monitoring Station (REMS), the average daytime temperature at the REMS location on Mars is –5.7 °C (22 °F), while the average nighttime temperature is –79 °C (–109 °F). This daily variation in temperature is much larger than what we experience on Earth. What factor plays the largest role in this wide temperature variation, the composition or the density of the atmosphere?arrow_forwardThe world burns approximately 3.7 * 1012 kg of fossil fuel per year. Use the combustion of octane as the representative reaction and determine the mass of carbon dioxide (the most significant greenhouse gas) formed per year. The current concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is approximately 399 ppm (by volume). By what percentage does the concentration increase each year due to fossil fuel combustion? Approximate the average properties of the entire atmosphere by assuming that the atmosphere extends from sea level to 15 km and that it has an average pressure of 381 torr and average temperature of 275 K. Assume Earth is a perfect sphere with a radius of 6371 km.arrow_forward
- Without naturally occurring greenhouse gases, Earth's average global temperature would be near 0°F (or -18°C) instead of the actual value of 59°F (15°C).

Initially, the bubble has a volume of 10.0 mL. Assuming none of the air dissolves in the water. how many times larger is the bubble just as it reaches the surface? Use this data: 1. The density of seawater is approximately 1.025 g mL 2. The density of mercury is 13.6 g mL times larger Use your answer to explain why scuba divers constantly exhale as they slowly rise from a deep dive. Since the pressure v by a factor of approximatelyi the volume must v by a factor of approximately i Divers exhale to the amount of gas in their lungs, so it does not V to a volume than the diver's lungs.arrow_forwardWhat is Environmental chemistry?
