Answer:

Subduction is a geological process that takes place at convergent boundaries of tectonic plates where one plate moves under another and is forced to sink due to high gravitational potential energy into the mantle. Regions where this process occurs are known as subduction zones.

The sulfur dioxide (so2) stack-gas concentration from fossil-fuel combustion is 12 ppmv. determine the stack-gas so2 concentrati
sergejj [24]

The concentration of SO_{2} in the stack gas = 12 ppmv

That means 12 L of  SO_{2} is present per 10^{6} L gas

The given temperature is 273 K (0 C) and pressure is 1 atm. At these conditions, 1 mol of gas would occupy,

PV = nRT

(1 atm) (V) = (1 mol)(0.08206\frac{L.atm}{mol.K}) (273 K)

V = 22.4 L

1 mol SO_{2} occupies 22.4 L

Moles of SO_{2} = 12 L *\frac{1 mol}{22.4 L} = 0.5357 mol SO_{2}

Mass of  SO_{2} =0.5357 mol *\frac{64.06 g}{1 mol}  = 34.32 g SO_{2}  *\frac{10^{6} microgram}{1 g} =3.432 *10^{7}μg

Converting 10^{6} L to m^{3}:

10^{6} L *\frac{1 m^{3}}{1000 L} = 10^{3}   m^{3}

Calculating the concentration in μg/m^{3}:

\frac{3.432 * 10^{7} microgram}{10^{3} L}    = 3.432 * 10^{4}  microgram/m^{3}

The knowledge produced by science builds on old ideas and is constantly changing.
VikaD [51]
Yes it is always changing, as time moves on new technological advancements are made. This makes it possible for new ideas to be created. For example the depiction of an atom went through many stages throughout the years in order to find out our current final version. New scientists and new ideas can add on to older ones, making explanations that make more scientific sense.
