CLASS ASSESSMENT WORKSHEET DAY 2

The burning of fossil fuels such as gasoline, coal, oil, natural gas in combustion reactions results in the production of carbon dioxideCarbon dioxide is emitted by the burning of fossil fuels for electricity generation, industrial uses, transportation, as well as in homes and commercial buildings.  

How carbon dioxide is emitted?

What are the common gaseous pollutants?•Combustion of fossil fuels also produces _______________ (air pollutants, plasma, smoke)

•When fossil fuels are burned to produce energy the _____stored in them is emitted(carbon, oxygen, air)

•Most human-generated ________ gases come in the form of carbon dioxide

1) Fewer forests means larger amounts of ________gases entering the atmosphere

2) A recent estimate is that about _______km2 are deforested each year

CLASS ASSESSMENT WORKSHEET DAY 3The conversion of forest to another land use or removal of forest or trees is called deforestation .A recent estimate is that about 100,000 km2 are deforested each year.Common gaseous pollutants include carbon monoxide, sulfurdioxide, chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and nitrogen oxides produced  industry and motor vehicles. Methane (natural gas) is the second most important of the greenhouse gases resulting from human activities. It is produced by rice cultivation. Nitrous oxide is produced by various agricultural and industrial practices
