What are How much, How long, and How Strong?
200
When hydrocarbons (a combo of C's and H's) react with Oxygen gas (O2) to produce water (H20) and a form of carbon (either carbon dioxide - CO2, Carbon Monoxide - CO, or Carbon - C).
What is a combustion reaction?
200
This gas has experienced the greates increase in number from pre-industrial times to now (according to this chart).
What is Carbon Dioxide?
300
It's main function is to protect the Earth from the sun's harmful UV radiation .
What is the Ozone Layer?
300
This temperature phenomenon (where warm air traps cold air) contributes to smog.
