Q

2 major issues associated with burning fossil fuels

A

Global warming and acid rain

18
Q

What does an increase in the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere cause

A

🩷Traps re-radiated heat
🩷less heat is emitted to space
🩷global temperatures rise and climate change occurs

19
Q

What is created in a limited supply of oxygen when fossil fuels are burned

A

Carbon, Carbon monoxide and water
(Incomplete combustion)

20
Q

Whats the equation for the “incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons”

A

Hydrocarbon+oxygen—> carbon+carbon monoxide+water

21
Q

What is sulfur

A

An impurity found in coal

22
Q

What is the effect of sulfur

A

When coal is burned the sulfur(impurities) combine with oxygen to produce sulfur dioxide

23
Q

Word equation for sulfur dioxide

A

sulfur(s)+oxygen(g)—>sulfur dioxide(g)

24
Q

What is the problem with sulfur dioxide

A

The gas is very soluble and dissolves in rain water to
produce an acidic solution

25
How is nitrogen dioxide produced?
The sparking of air in car engines
26
Whats the word equation for the produce of nitrogen dioxide
Nitrogen(g)+oxygen(g)—>nitrogen dioxide (g)
27
Whats the problem with nitrogen dioxide?
Nitrogen dioxide dissolves in rain water to form an acidic solution
28
Whats the impact with acid rain?
Damages buildings made from limestone and marble and accelerates the corrosion of metal structures
29
What harm does acid rain have to living things
Kills plant life and harmful to aquatic organisms
30
What is photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants make carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water.
31
When is carbohydrate glucose produced?
carbohydrate glucose is produced and oxygen is released during photosynthesis.
32
What is the word equation for the production pf glucose+oxygen
carbon dioxide + water → glucose + oxygen
33
What do plants require to absorb light energy?
Chlorophyll
34
Whats the main function of carbohydrates in our diet?
Provide us with energy
35
What elements does Carbohydrate contain?
Carbon hydrogen and oxygen
36
What happens when a carbohydrate undergo combustion
They release energy and produce carbon dioxide and water
37
What is the word equation for the products of carbon dioxide + water
Carbohydrate+oxygen—>carbon dioxide +water
38
What is an exothermic reaction?
A reaction when energy is given out
39
What is respiration?
Respiration is the process which releases energy in plants and animals
40
Why is respiration important for all living things?
Respiration is important for all living things because it provides energy when glucose is broken down in the body.
41
What is used to make alcohol?
Fermentation has been used since ancient times for making alcholic beverages
42
What are the necessary ingredients for fermentation?
Carbohydrate,water and yeast
