Question
Chapter 11, Problem 11.72PAE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The clean air act has not been substantially amended since 1990 but new air quality regulations are still devised and implemented.Using the internet, the process that is used to make changes in how air pollution is monitored and regulated without new laws being enacted should be explained.
Concept introduction:
The Clean Air Act is significant as it was the first major environmental law in the United states to include a provision for citizen suits.

The 1995 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was shared by Paul Crutzen, F. Sherwood Rowland, and Mario Molina for their work
concerning the formation and decomposition of ozone in the stratosphere. Rowland and Molina hypothesized that
chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) in the stratosphere break down upon exposure to UV radiation, producing chlorine atoms. Chlorine
was previously identified as a catalyst in the breakdown of ozone into oxygen gas.
Using the enthalpy of reaction for two reactions with ozone, determine the enthalpy of reaction for the reaction of chlorine
with ozone.
