Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Strategies for controlling dangerous level of ozone at chemical level.
Concept introduction: The ozone can be produced with the help of nascent oxygen when it reacts with oxygen gas as follows:
Thus, by controlling the concentration of nascent oxygen, the level of dangerous ozone can be controlled.
(b)
Interpretation:
Strategies at societal level for controlling dangerous level of ozone should be identified.
Concept introduction: The ozone can be produced with the help of nascent oxygen when it reacts with oxygen gas as follows:
Thus, by controlling the concentration of nascent oxygen, the level of dangerous ozone can be controlled.

- Green Chemistry and Atom Economy The purposeful design of chemical products and processes that minimize the use of environmentally hazardous substances and the generation of waste is known as green chemistry. Green chemistry is a philosophical approach that is being applied to many areas of science and technology, and its practice is summarized by guidelines known as the “Twelve Principles of Green Chemistry” (see details at this website (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/16greenchem) ). One of the 12 principles is aimed specifically at maximizing the efficiency of processes for synthesizing chemical products. The atom economy of a process is a measureof this efficiency, defined as the percentage by mass of the final product of a synthesis relative to the masses of all the reactants used: atom economy = mass of product/mass of reactants × 100%Though the definition of atom economy at first glance appears very similar to that for percent yield, be aware that this property represents a…arrow_forwardThe Chemistry of Global Climatearrow_forwardThe mass of magnesium used in this experiment is critical to determining the moles of hydrogen gas generated. The analytical balances used in Chemistry 1A labs are very sensitive to point that touching materials with your fingers before measuring them can affect the measurements. The balances are sensitive enough to detect dirt and oils from your fingers transferred to the magnesium. Would your experimental value of R increase or decrease if the mass of magnesium measured was artificially high due the touching it with your hands? Increase Decreasearrow_forward

Kathy begins telling about her spring break trip to warm, sunny Spain. She starts to laugh when she tells the group that she was frustrated when she awoke on the first day to an outside temperature of 18° and a predicted high of 24°. Kathy was laughing because in Spain temperatures are measured in Celsius. What was the predicted high in Fahrenheit? > View Available Hint(s) O75.2 °F 6.2 °F 100.8 °F O75 °Farrow_forward
