Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas. According to NASA, the atmospheric concentration of CO2 is 406ppm (mg/L). The Earth's atmosphere has a mass of approximately 5.15 x 1015 kg. If 0.04% of the atmosphere is CO2, how many liters of CO2 are in the earth's atmosphere? The density of CO2= 0.001977g/mL and the density of air = 0.00128g/mL.
