1) When sunlight reaches the Earth's surface, it can either be reflected back into space or absorbed by the Earth. Once absorbed, the planet releases some of the energy back into the atmosphere as heat. Greenhouse gases (GHG) like water vapor (H₂O), carbon dioxide (CO₂), and methane (CH4) act like a blanket, absorbing energy, slowing or preventing the loss of heat back into space. This process is commonly known as the "greenhouse effect." This graph shows the increase in greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations in the atmosphere over the last 2,000 years. What conclusion could be supported by the data? A) B) () D) Levels of GHGs should level off in the next few years based on current trends shown in the graph. Increases in concentrations of GHGs since 1750 are due to human activities in the industrial era. Fluctuations in levels of GHGS are normal and are caused by natural processes that ebb and flow over time. Carbon dioxide is the primary greenhouse gas that is contributing to recent climate change, having increased more than any other GHG since pre- Pedrerial times

Determine the concentrations (in mole fraction) of all species in the exhaust from the incomplete combustion (90% combustion) of butane (C4H10). Assume 50% excess air with respect to complete combustion is the source for the oxygen. Air composition is 79 mol% N2 and 21 mol% O2.
A quantity of gas in a piston cylinder had a volume of 0.539 m^3 and a pressure of 200 Pa. the piston compresses the gas to 0.222 m^3 in an isothermal (constant-temperature) process. What is the final pressure of the gas?
An adult takes about 12 breaths per minute, inhaling roughly 500 mL of air with each breath. The molar compositions of the inspired and expired gases are as follows: Species Inspired Gas (%) Expired Gas (%)O2 20.6 15.1CO2 0.0 3.7N2 77.4 75.0H2O 2.0 6.2The inspired gas is at 24°C and 1 atm, and the expired gas is at body temperature and pressure (37°C and 1 atm). Nitrogen is not transported into or out of the blood in the lungs. All nitrogen inhaled is exhaled. 1. Calculate the masses of O2, CO2, and H2O transferred from the pulmonary gases to the blood or vice versa (specify which) per minute. 2. Calculate the volume of air exhaled per milliliter inhaled. 3.
