The atmosphere is a highly complex gaseous mixture that sustains life on Earth. Approximately 99% of the air is composed of nitrogen (N2) and oxygen (O2). The remaining 1% is made up of a variety of other gases, including carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H2), and ammonia (NH3), among many others. Because most of the gases that comprise the atmosphere are present at very low levels (<0.002%), their quantities are often expressed in parts per million (ppm) or parts per billion (ppb) rather than as a percent. Ozone (O3) is found in the troposphere at 2.5×10−6%. Convert this value to parts per million. [O3]= _______ ppm The atmosphere contains 2.9×10−7%2.9×10−7% nitrogen dioxide (NO2). Convert this value to parts per billion. [NO2]= _______ ppb Atmospheric methane (CH4) is present at 1983 ppb. Convert this value to a percentage. [CH4]= _______ %

A core sample is saturated with an oil (?o = 35oAPI), gas and water. The initial weight of the sample is 224.14 g. After the gas is displaced by water (?w = 1 g/cm3 ), the weight is increased to 225.90 g. The sample is the placed in a Soxhlet distillation apparatus, and 4.4 cm3 water is extracted. After drying the core sample, the weight is now 209.75 g. The sample bulk volume, 95 cm3 is measured in a mercury pycnometer. Find the porosity, water saturation, oil saturation, gas saturation and lithology of the core sample.

The volume of the mixture prepared by taking 1.158 mol and 0.842 mol of water and ethanol, respectively, was measured as 68.16 cm3 at 25 ° C.Since the partial molar volume of water in the mixture is 16.98 cm3 / mol, find the partial molar volume of ethanol.Since the densities at 25ᴼC for pure water and ethanol are given as 0,9970 g / cm3 and 0,7852 g / cm3, respectively, find the volume change during the preparation of the mixture and interpret the result. (MSu: 18 g / mol; Methanol = 46 g / mol)
As we have discussed in class, CO is highly toxic. An added danger comes from the fact that CO is very slightly less dense than air, so it rises up from the malfunctioning furnace in the basement to the bedrooms upstairs... victims are poisoned while they sleep. Calculate the density of CO and air: assume 298 K and 1 atm (assume air is 22% O2, 78% N2). (Remember not to round anything until your calculation is finished.)
