-- Take the number of percent. -- Multiply it by 10,000-- The answer is the number of parts per million. . 10 percent = 100,000 parts per million.

Does carbon dioxide make up 0.9 percent of the air?

Not even close. Argon makes up about 0.9% of our atmosphere. CO2 is closer to 400 parts per million, or 0.04%.


How many parts per million of CO2 is 2.5 mole?

To convert from moles to parts per million (ppm) for a gas like CO2, you need to know the volume of the gas at standard temperature and pressure (STP). At STP, 1 mole of ideal gas occupies 22.4 liters. From there, you can calculate the ppm using the formula: ppm = (moles of gas / total moles of gas) * 1,000,000.


How much carbondyoxyde is in the air?

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the major components of Earth\'s atmosphere making up about 0.04 percent (400 parts per million) of the air we breathe. It is also the most important of the "greenhouse gases" that regulate the temperature of our planet.In the troposphere (the atmospheric layer closest to the surface of the Earth) the average concentration of CO2 is about 400 ppm (parts per million).At higher elevations the concentration of CO2 decreases reaching a minimum of about 300 ppm in the stratosphere.At the highest levels of the atmosphere CO2 concentrations are much lower ranging from about 5 to 10 ppm.CO2 concentrations are constantly fluctuating due to natural processes such as respiration and photosynthesis as well as human activities such as burning fossil fuels. As a result the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere is constantly changing.


How do you figure ppm of CO2 in the air?

To calculate the parts per million (ppm) of CO2 in the air, you would measure the concentration of CO2 in the air using a CO2 sensor or monitor, and then divide that by the total volume of the air sample. This would give you the ppm of CO2 in the air sample. Common methods include using infrared gas analyzers or chemical absorbents.


What were Levels of CO2 in the cretaceous period?

The carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in the Cretaceous were 1,700 parts per million. That is 6 times the modern pre-industrial level (the amount of CO2 before the industrial revolution). The higher CO2 levels may have been partially responsible for the warm average temperature during the Cretaceous (4 C [7.6 F] above modern temperature).

What is the concentration in parts per million (ppm) of CO2 in rainwater with a pH of 5.6?

The concentration of CO2 in rainwater with a pH of 5.6 is approximately 10 parts per million (ppm).


Par 1 000 000 de particules d'air combien de particules de CO2. How many parts per million of CO2 are in the air?

For every million parts of air there are 400 ppm (parts per million) or 0.04% of CO2(carbon dioxide). This is serious increase from 280 ppm (parts per million) or 0.028% which was the level for thousands of years before the Industrial Revolution, 200 years ago.

Is carbon dioxide measured in parts per million?

Yes, Carbon dioxide levels are measured in particles of CO2 per 1 million particles of the air. For example, at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution (1700), levels were about 280 ppm (parts per million) or 0.028%. In 2013 levels reached 400 ppm (parts per million) or 0.04%.


How does the destruction of the Amazon affect global warming?

trees convert CO2 to O2. CO2 is the cause of the warming The less trees there are to convert CO2, the more CO2 there will be


What is the minimum CO2 level required for optimal plant growth?

The minimum CO2 level required for optimal plant growth is around 150 parts per million (ppm).


What is the optimum CO2 level for plant growth?

The optimum CO2 level for plant growth is around 400 parts per million (ppm). This concentration allows plants to efficiently photosynthesize and grow.
