Concept Introduction:
The conversion of one unit into another can be done by a proper conversion factor. Conversion factors are the ratios that relate the two different units of a quantity. It is also known as dimensional analysis or factor label method.
In the unit conversion problems, the given information is multiplied by the conversion factors to obtain the desired information. The unit conversion can be done as follows:

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. Make an assumption that the Temperature of the collected gas is 22.4 L = 1 mol, STP conditions (which it really is not at).
A student reads a barometer in the laboratory and finds the atmospheric pressure to be 793.6 mmHg. Express this pressure in atmospheres (do not include the units). Assume that the conversion is exact.
The severity of a tropical storm is related to the depressed atmospheric pressure at its center. In August 1985, Typhoon Odessa in the Pacific Ocean featured maximum winds of about 90 mi/hr and pressure that was 40.0 mbar lower at the center than normal atmospheric pressure. In contrast, the central pressure of Hurricane Andrew (pictured) was 90.0 mbar lower than its surroundings when it hit south Florida with winds as high as 165 mi/hr.
a. If a small weather balloon with a volume of 44.0 L at a pressure of 1.00 atmosphere was deployed at the edge of Typhoon Odessa, what was the volume of the balloon when it reached the center? L

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?
