In summary, the Earth's atmosphere is composed of mainly nitrogen and oxygen, with trace amounts of other gases. The greenhouse effect helps regulate the Earth's temperature, but human activities have increased greenhouse gases and caused global warming. The ozone layer is important for protecting us from UV radiation, but is being depleted due to human actions. Air pollution can also have negative effects on the atmosphere's chemistry, such as forming smog and acid rain. Current issues regarding the atmosphere's chemistry include ozone layer depletion and increasing levels of greenhouse gases. Immediate action is needed to address these issues.

Hi yall! Does anyone know how one can solve kinetíc energy of H-atom if the dissociation energy and the wavelenght of photons are known when HBr-molecules are photodissociated? Tricky... :cry:

I'll take a stab at this. You know by Einstein's equation E=hv=hc/Lamda.


E=dissociation energy+kinetic energy. You can find E and you are given dissociation energy, solve for kinetic energy.


Again, I am not 100% sure if this is correct.

At what temperature and pressure ?
 

1. What is the composition of the Earth's atmosphere?

The Earth's atmosphere is primarily made up of nitrogen (78%) and oxygen (21%). The remaining 1% is made up of trace gases such as carbon dioxide, water vapor, and argon.

2. How does the greenhouse effect impact the Earth's atmosphere?

The greenhouse effect is a natural process that helps regulate the Earth's temperature by trapping heat from the sun. However, human activities such as burning fossil fuels have increased the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, leading to an enhanced greenhouse effect and causing global warming.

3. What is the ozone layer and why is it important?

The ozone layer is a layer of gas in the Earth's stratosphere that helps protect us from the sun's harmful ultraviolet radiation. Without the ozone layer, life on Earth would not be able to thrive as UV radiation can cause damage to living organisms.

4. How does air pollution affect the chemistry of the atmosphere?

Air pollution, specifically from human activities, can introduce harmful chemicals and pollutants into the atmosphere. These pollutants can react with other chemicals in the atmosphere to form smog and acid rain, which can have negative impacts on both human health and the environment.

5. What are some current issues regarding the chemistry of the atmosphere?

One major issue is the depletion of the ozone layer due to the release of ozone-depleting chemicals such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). Another issue is the increasing levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, leading to climate change and global warming. Both of these issues require immediate action to mitigate their impacts on the Earth's atmosphere.
