Question
Answered step-by-step
We hear a lot about how the burning of hydrocarbons produces the greenhouse gas $\mathrm{CO}_{2},$ but what about the effect of increasing energy consumption on the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere required to sustain life. The figure shows past and projected energy world consumption. (a) How many moles of oxygen would be required to generate the additional energy expenditure for the next decade?(b) What would be the resulting decrease in atmospheric oxygen?

In chemistry, a chemical reaction is a process that leads to the transformation of one set of chemical substances to another. Both reactants and products are involved in the chemical reactions.

In chemistry, energy is what is required to bring about a chemical reaction. The total energy of a system is the sum of the potential energy of its constituent particles and the kinetic energy of these particles. Chemical energy, also called bond energy, is the potential energy stored in the chemical bonds of a substance. Chemical energy is released when a bond is broken during chemical reactions.

Hello everyone. So that what is given in this question. So in this question the question is related. That is the increasing concentration of the atmospherics U. Two is given. And that is characterized by the compassion of the fossils forcing fuels and what we have to find. We have to just find out the relationship between how does this atmospherics youtube that affect the we can say the biomass fuel or the fossil fuels. So let's see the explanation to this question. So when we talk about the fossil fuels, so when the fossil fuels are born we can say when the fossil fuel are burned so they release a huge amount of carbon dioxide and uh Corinne and a greenhouse gas and the greenhouse gas into the air greenhouse gasses that trap the heat in our atmosphere. And that causes the global that causality global. What I mean already the average global temperature average global temperature that has increased by one C. And apart from that in this condition, The remaining 89%. We can say that emissions came from the fossil fuel and industry and in this case we can say increasing the carbon dioxide level. Also called the climate change. Also responsible for the climate change by trapping the heat and they contribute to the respiratory disease from the smog and the air. So this is the final answer to questions. Thank you
