How long does it take a tree to respire 1 ton of co2?

2/3 of dry wood is carbon. The carbon came from carbon dioxide. Trees grow at different rates so you need to find out fast it grows to answer the question. Say the tree adds a ton of dry wood in 1 year (1 Ton Wood/Yr). That locks up 0.667 ton of carbon. The carbon came from CO2 which is 0.375 carbon by weight. Cross-multiply and divide...solve for X: 1 Ton CO2 / 0.375 Ton CO2 = X Ton Wood / 0.667 Ton Wood X = 1.77 Ton Wood Divide by the rate and you get the time: 1.77 Ton Wood / 1 Ton Wood/Yr = 1.77 Yr


1 ton of paper produces how many metric tons of CO2?

1 ton of paper may produce a little CO2, but it would be measured in terms of a few grammes rather than tonnes. The paper's creation or burning may produce significantly more, but that's not what you asked about.

What is co2 equivalent of ammonia as greenhouse gas?

Ammonia, as many other gases, contributes to the "greenhouse effect". The mayor gas known to increase global warming through the greenhouse effect is CO2 (carbon dioxide), and to compare the potential of any given gas to the greenhouse effect, an equivalency is often used. This equivalency comes from the fact that a metric ton of CO2 pollutes the environment; so a metric ton of methane contribute to the greenhouse effect as much as 25 metric tons of CO2 would contribute. So, 1 metric ton of ammonia do as much damage to the planet as "CO2 equivalent of ammonia" metric tons of CO2.
