Amount of argon in air
0.9%
Amount of o2 in air
21%
Amount of nitrogen in air
78%
Amount of co2 in air
0.04%
Co2 increased due to
Burning fossil fuels
Deforestation
Co increased to
Incomplete combustion
Sulfur dioxide caused by
Volcano eruption
Fossil fuel combustion
Methane released by
Cattle burp/fart
Nitrogen oxides released by
Lightning
Cars
Early atmosphere formation stages
1) volcanoes released co2 water vapour
2) earth cooled forming oceans
3) co2 dissolved into oceans, turned into shells of sea animals
4) shells turned intro sediment
5) plants photosynthesised
Calcium carbonate heated forms
Calcium oxide and co2
Add water to calcium oxide to get
Calcium hydroxide solution
Add co2 to calcium hydroxide solution
Calcium carbonate
Above ph7

InComplete combustion, why?
extra products?
Not enough oxygen available
Produces carbon monoxide and soot
Acid rain caused by
Burning of fossil fuels , releasing sulphur dioxide which dissolves in clouds
Ethanol produced by
Processing sugar wheat or sugar beet with yeast
Teacups (choosing fuels)
Transport Energy Availability Cost Usability Pollution Storage
Hydrogen fuel cells ,explain
Hydrogen gas reacts with oxygen to make water (without combustion) releases electrical energy
Disadvantages of hydrogen fuel
Storage
Cost
Alkanes defined and examples
Only have single bonds Saturated Methane Ethane Propane Butane
Alkenes defined
At least 1 double bond
Unsaturated
Alkenes indicator
Turn bromine water from orange to colourless
Cracking is
Breaking long chain NOT useful into 2 USEFUL parts
Products of cracking
Alkene (used for polymerisation)
Shorter chain alkane
Cracking requires
soaked wool (in alkane) Porcelain chips catalyst
Polymerisation is
Breaking double bond
Turning monomers to polymers
