One of the many remarkable enzymes in the human body is carbonic
anhydrase, which catalyzes the interconversion of carbonic acid with
carbon dioxide and water. If it were not for this enzyme, the body could
not rid itself rapidly enough of the CO₂2 accumulated by cell metabolism.
The enzyme catalyzes the dehydration (release to air) of up to 10 CO₂
molecules per second.

Ozone is depleted in the stratosphere by chlorine from CF3Cl according to this set of equations:CF3Cl + UV light -------> CF3 + ClCl + O3 ------>ClO + O2O3 + UV light ---------> O2 + OClO + O ----------->Cl + O2
What total volume of ozone at a pressure of 25.0 mmHg and a temperature of 225 K is destroyed when all of the chlorine from 15.0 g of CF3Cl goes through ten cycles of the above reactions?
Chlorine atoms in the atmosphere can react with ozone. Mathematically combine
the following two reactions to create an overall balanced equation with the lowest
whole-number coefficients. All chemical species in the reaction are gas-phase.
Which of the following best represents the overall reaction?
C1+03 → Clo+0₂
c10+ 0 → Cl + 0₂
To combine the reactions to create the overall balanced equation, you need to eliminate spectator
species and only include the remaining species.
O There are two lone chlorine atoms in the overall balanced reaction.
O Two chlorine atoms can cause the production of two oxygen molecules.
O CIO appears on the reactant and product side of the overall balanced reaction.
Lone oxygen atoms are consumed by the overall reaction.
O There is a net conversion of O2 to 03.
