Describe what happened to the overall level of carbon dioxide over this period of time.
4. Suppose that a large amount of forest land was cleared to provide
farmland. What effect would the clearing have on the carbon dioxide
level in the air? Explain your answer.
A large sport utility vehicle has a mass of 2.5 * 103 kg. Calculate the mass of CO2 emitted into the atmosphere upon accelerating the SUV from 0.0 mph to 65.0 mph. Assume that the required energy comes from the combustion of octane with 30% efficiency. (Hint: Use KE = 1/2 mv2 to calculate the kineticenergy required for the acceleration.)

One example of a CFC that is known to exasperate formation of the hole in the O3 layer is dichlorodifluoromethane (CF2Cl2). In the year 2000, this chemical reached its peak concentration of 2.2 x 10-11 M in the atmosphere. The destruction of CF2Cl2 can be approximated as a first-order process and the 1996 treaty on CFC emissions has eliminated its release into the atmosphere. Given that the rate constant for destruction of CF2Cl2 in the atmosphere is 0.009 yr-1, how long will it take for the concentration of CF2Cl2 to decline to 0.22 x 10-11 M?arrow_forward
