Chemistry of the Atmosphere

 What’s the Connection?

carbon dioxide ammonia nitrogen

water vapour methane

Gases Released by Volcanoes

One theory suggests that the Earth's
early atmosphere was formed by gases
released during volcanic activity.
 What’s the Connection?

sea levels rising storms food production

global warming wildlife extinction

Climate Change Consequences

As global warming takes effect, there
will be many repercussions. These
include rising sea levels, wildlife
extinction, more extreme weather and
an impact on food production.
 What’s the Connection?

sulfur dioxide water vapour unburned hydrocarbons

nitrogen oxides soot carbon monoxide carbon dioxide

Products of Combustion
Each product causes its own
problems including pollution, acid
rain, greenhouse gases and respiratory
problems. Each can be reduced by
altering our actions, for example,
ensuring a good supply of oxygen is
present when burning hydrocarbons.

Gases in Dry Air

Found in differing amounts, these
are the gases that make up
the atmosphere today.
