Concept introduction:
Greenhouse effect is a process in which heat is trapped by the atmospheric gases near the surface of the earth.
Stratosphere is the second lowest layer of the Earth’s atmosphere and mainly contains ozone, nitrogen and oxygen.

- Write the overall balanced reaction equation to oxidize sodium cyanide using ozone (O3).arrow_forwardSome indoor air-purification systems work by converting a little of the oxygen in the air to ozone, which oxidizes mold and mildew spores and other biological air pollutants. The chemical equation for the ozone generation reaction is: It is claimed that one such system generates 4.00 g O3 per hour from dry air passing through the purifier at a flow of 5.00 L/min. If one liter of indoor air contains 0.280 g of O2, what mole fraction of O2 is converted to O3 by the air purifier? What is the percent yield of the ozone generation reaction?arrow_forwardDescribe the origins and behavior of sulfur oxides and nitrogen oxides as air pollutants, including the generation of acid rain and photochemical smog?arrow_forward
- A commercial 737 jet transporting 143 passengers and 5 crew members from Kansas city (MCI) to Baltimore (BWI) burned 11800 lb. of Jet A fuel. Jet A fuel is kerosene based, consisting primarily of CnH2n+2 hydrocarbons, with n = 6 to 16, so the Carbon:Hydrogen ratio is close to 1:2. During this flight , how much CO2 (in kg) was released into the atmosphere? (assume the combustion of fuel was complete, so all fuel was converted into H2O and CO2).arrow_forwardWhat is the type of the following reaction? 2HgO(s) 2Hg(I) + O2(g) The answer is ………………………. 17arrow_forwardO3 is produced in the troposphere through the photochemical oxidation of NO2. The photolytically formed O3 reacts with NO to regenerate NO2through the following reaction:O3(g) + NO(g) → NO2(g) + O2(g) Calculate the equilibrium constant (K) of the reaction at 100 °C and 1 atm.arrow_forward
- (a) How are the boundaries between the regions of the atmosphere determined? (b) Explain why the stratosphere, which is about 35 km thick, has a smaller total mass than the troposphere, which is about 12 km thickarrow_forwardGreat Lakes Chemical Company produces bromine, Br2, from bromide salts, such as NaBr, in Arkansas brine by treating the brine with chlorine gas. Write a balanced equation for the reaction of NaBr with Cl2. (Include states-of-matter under the given conditions in your answer. Use the lowest possible whole number coefficients.)arrow_forward
