O O CH3 C C-O NAD+ NADH CH3—C−O + CO2 The reactant molecule is re-drawn in the drawing area below. Highlight in red any groups in this molecule in which carbon atoms are oxidized by the reaction. Highlight in blue any groups in which carbon atoms are reduced. If no carbon atoms are oxidized or reduced, check the box under the drawing area. O O CH₂ -C No carbons are oxidized or reduced. ·0 x È ? 00 Är
The 24 power plants in Baltimore metro area collectively emit about 40,300 metric tons of CO2 per day (www.carma.org), thereby increasing the level of greenhouse gases in this region. To counter this, environmentalists plan to plant trees in the area. How many moles of CO2 are emitted by these power plants every day? (1 ton =1000kg, molecular weight of CO2 is 44g) If on average 500 moles of glucose are synthesized by a tree each day, how many moles of CO2 can a single tree convert to glucose in a single day? How many trees need to be planted to reabsorb all the CO2 released into the atmosphere every day by these power plants? If a single tree occupies an average of 8.00 x 10-5 sq miles, what percent of the area of Baltimore city needs to be forested to counter the CO2 emitted from power plants alone?  (total area of Baltimore city is 92.00 sq miles)
A styrofoam cup was analyzed in a lab and found to contain 92% by mass carbon. How much carbon can be found in a stack of polystyrene cups with a total mass of 569 grams?
