Given that the concentration of CH4 in the atmosphere is 1.8 ppm, calculate the total
mass of this gas that is present in the atmosphere. Note that the total mass of the
atmosphere is 5.1 x 1018 kg and that its average molar mass is 29.0 g/mol.
Explain the role of ozone gas in troposphere and stratosphere. What do you understand by ozone layer
depletion? Explain the causes and solution of ozone layer depletion.
Part 5. Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures
A sample of Argon gas is placed in a 5.0L container at 298K. The measured pressure is 1.0 atm.
If Xenon gas is added to the same container containing the Argon, and the volume and
temperature due not change, the pressure increases to 1.5 atm. From this data calculate the
moles of argon and xenon present in the flask and the mole fraction of each gas.
