What happens when thermal energy leaves the Sun

It is reflected, absorbed, and/or radiated in Earth's atmosphere and/or at its surface including all of the land and water.

The pH of acid rain is

any measurement lower than 5.6 on the pH scale.

is the transfer of heat by the flow of a heated material.

Water is the only substance that exists as

a solid, liquid, and gas in Earth's atmosphere.

Emissions are controlled by

laws and new technology (catalytic converters, smokestack scrubbers, electrostatic precipitators) that reduce or prevent air pollution

Air above the equator is

heated more than at any other place on Earth

Reflection and absorption by the atmosphere prevent

some radiation from the Earth's surface

is the brown haze that forms over some cities

A catalytic converter,

an emissions control device, was added to automobiles in the mid-1970's

We can’t see, smell, or taste

ozone gas but it is important to us because it shields us from the harmful ultraviolet radiation

ozone gas protects us from

too much exposure which can damage our skin, cause cancer, weaken our immune system, and even damage our eyes

Question	Answer
how much carbon come from car exhaust	60%
What happens when thermal energy leaves the Sun	It is reflected, absorbed, and/or radiated in Earth's atmosphere and/or at its surface including all of the land and water.
The pH of acid rain is	any measurement lower than 5.6 on the pH scale.
How does Chlorofluorocarbons destroy the ozone layer	it destroys ozone molecules
convection	is the transfer of heat by the flow of a heated material.
Water is the only substance that exists as	a solid, liquid, and gas in Earth's atmosphere.
Too much exposure to ultraviolet radiation can cause	skin cancer
Electrically charged particles are found primarily in	the ionosphere
The exosphere merges into	outer space
Radiation is the transfer of energy by	electromagnetic waves
Air in the troposphere is warmed by	heat from the Earth's surface
The troposphere is the layer of the atmosphere	closest to Earth's surface
The state of matter where the molecules are spaced the farthest apart is	a gas
Emissions are controlled by	laws and new technology (catalytic converters, smokestack scrubbers, electrostatic precipitators) that reduce or prevent air pollution
Air above the equator is	heated more than at any other place on Earth
Reflection and absorption by the atmosphere prevent	some radiation from the Earth's surface
Temperatures in the thermosphere are	very warm
smog	is the brown haze that forms over some cities
A chlorine atom in a chlorofluorocarbon molecule is responsible for	destroying ozone molecules
A catalytic converter,	an emissions control device, was added to automobiles in the mid-1970's
We can’t see, smell, or taste	ozone gas but it is important to us because it shields us from the harmful ultraviolet radiation
ozone gas protects us from	too much exposure which can damage our skin, cause cancer, weaken our immune system, and even damage our eyes
