Chemistry Ozone Depletion Ozone depletion describes two distinct but related phenomena observed since the late 1970s: a steady decline of about 4% per decade in the total volume of ozone in Earth’s stratosphere (the ozone layer)‚ and a much larger springtime decrease in stratospheric ozone over Earth’s polar regions. The latter phenomenon is referred to as theozone hole. In addition to these well-known stratospheric phenomena‚ there are also springtime polartropospheric ozone depletion events. The

In the 18th and 19th centuries scientists wrestled with identifying and describing the nature of the “stuff” that produced change. One concept that became popular for a while was that of “caloric” (what we now call heat). “Caloric was originally conceived of as a quantity that would flow from a hotter object to a cooler one that would warm up as a result. It answered the need for a way for the cause of warming to get from here to there. Not only did caloric serve as a cause for warming‚ it

Chemical Reactions in Everyday Life Science being a subject of common interest‚ it is very intriguing to analyze visual experiments happening in day-to-day life. There are a plethora of products that you use everyday‚ which are formulated with application of chemical reaction. Say for example; toothpaste‚ soap‚ shampoo‚ cleaning agent‚ etc. are all results of chemical reactions. Following are some of the most profound chemical reactions‚ which we encounter in everyday life : Aerobic Respiration

Chemistry Review (mid-term) 1. Use the equation for atomic mass to answer the following questions. (http://johnheilchem10.escuelacampoalegre.wikispaces.net/file/view/average+atomic+mass+calculations+-+3.pdf) 1. Argon has three naturally occurring isotopes: argon-36‚ argon-38‚ and argon-40. Based on argon’sreported atomic mass‚ which isotope do you think is the most abundant in nature? Explain. 2. Copper is made of two isotopes. Copper-63 is 69.17% abundant and it has a mass of 62.9296 amu.
