Atmosphere

Question 1

What does volcanoes release

Answer 1

Co2
Nitrogen
Methane
Ammonia

Question 2

How were oceans made

Answer 2

When water vapour condensed

Question 3

What happened to co2 when it dissolved in oceans

Answer 3

It went through a series of reactions to from carbonate precipitates that formed sediments in the seabed’s

Question 4

How are sedimentary rocks formed oil and gas

Answer 4

Plants plankton and marine animals die they fall to the seabed and get burie by layers of sediment
These become compressed and form them

Question 5

What is crude oil and natural gas formed from

Answer 5

Deposits of plankton

Question 6

What is coal

What is limestone

Answer 6

Sedimentary rock made from thick plant deposits

Sedimentary rock made from calcium carbonate deposits

Question 7

What wavelengths do greenhouse gases absorb

And radiation type

Answer 7

Long wavelength radiation that get reflected back off of earth
This is thermal radiation

Question 8

What are carbon footprints

Answer 8

A measure of the amount of co2 and other greenhouse gases released over the full cycle of something

Question 9

How do fossil fuels release co2 into the air

Answer 9

They contain hydrocarbons and during combustion the carbon and hydrogen are oxidised so co2 and water vapour are released

Question 10

What can particulates cause

Answer 10

Respiratory problems

Reflect sunlight back to space so cause global dimming

Question 11

How is acid rain caused

Answer 11

Nitrogen oxides are created from nitrogen and oxygen reaction caused by heat of burning (combustion in car engines)
When these gases mix with water in clouds they fork dilute sulfúric of nitric acid
