Alternative Fuels – Data By: Denise Claire Tan Yet Nee Structure and physical properties of Molecules Nowadays‚ there are a lot of alternative fuels which have discovered by human beings in order to replace the depleting non-renewable fossil fuels supply. In fact‚ organic chemistry has successfully proved that organic compounds can be served substitution of fossil fuel supply. The structure and physical properties of organic molecules are characteristics that aid them to become useful fuels

org/wiki/Air_pollution) Combustion of fuel is one of the major causes of air pollution in urban areas. Burning of fossil fuels such as natural gas and gasoline leads to the emission of carbon dioxide and other gas‚ which deteriorates the quality of air‚ making the air polluted. Increased level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is one of the prime causes of air pollution. Power plants exhaust fumes of

negative sides to mankind such as global warming‚ air pollution and water pollution. First of all‚ industrialization developments give rise to greenhouse gases which include carbon dioxide and methane. A series of consequences are caused by high content of the greenhouse gases. The content of carbon dioxide in the air and temperature are rising. The earth is not appropriate for human being to live anymore when it rises up to a certain extent one day. Furthermore‚ what serious results greenhouse

Exposure to high levels of ozone can have serious consequences on your health. It can cause respiratory disease‚ loss of pulmonary elasticity‚ and premature aging of our lungs. Next‚ is acid rain‚ which occurs in the atmosphere in the form of sulfur and nitrogen oxide. These pollutants can have serious damaging affects on aquatic‚ forest and wildlife ecosystems‚ as well as deterioration of buildings. Carbon monoxide is another form of pollution. It reduces the blood’s ability to carry oxygen

Acid Rain Webquest Name: ________Jacob Rough_________________________ Date: _____3/25/13________ Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are gases released by the burning of fossil fuels. These gases can react with water and oxygen to form acids. Normally‚ rainwater is slightly acidic. But the additional acid that enters the air when fuels are burned makes it even more acidic. Acid rain can have a harmful effect on fish and other wildlife and upsets the delicate balance

An example of the attempted preservation of the environment may be‚ that an industry may only emit a tone of sulfur dioxide over a year but‚ next year the permit will lower the amount of sulfur that is allowed to be produced. Thus‚ firms most invest more money into machinery that is more environmentally friendly. Since tradable permits can be traded‚ the permit will move

The burning of coal releases toxic chemicals‚ including heavy metals (arsenic‚ selenium‚ boron‚ cadmium‚ mercury)‚ carbon dioxide‚ and HCL into the air and in some cases into the water of the environment. Most know coal to be a problem when burned‚ but simply shipping coal from point A to point B can have negative effects on the environment as well. The transportation of coal
