According to http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/solar/venusenv.html, the atmosphere of Venus is approximately 96.5% CO2, and 3.5% N2 by volume. On the surface, where the temperature is about 750K and pressure is about 90 atm, what is the density of the atmosphere?

Photosynthesis by land plants leads to the fixation each year ofabout 1 kg of carbon on the average for each square meter of anactively growing forest. The atmosphere is approximately 20% O2 and80% N2, but contains 0.046% CO2 by weight.
A.) What volume of air at 25 oC and 1 atm is needed to provide this1 kg of carbon?
B.) How much carbon is present in the entire atmosphere lying aboveeach square meter of the earth s surface?
C.) At the current rate of utilization, how long would it take touse all the CO2 in the entire atmosphere directly above a forest?For this problem, make the (unreasonable, but greatly simplifying)assumption that circulation and replenishment mechanisms for theair above the forest are cut off

Earth’s atmosphere is approximately 80% N₂ and 20% O₂. If the total atmospheric pressure at sea level is about 14.7 lb/in² . (where lb/in² is pounds per square inch, a common but non-SI unit of pressure), what are the partial pressures of N2 and O₂ in units lbs/in²?

Solar energy strikes the top of the Earth's atmosphere at . About percent of this energy is reflected directly back into space. The Earth-atmosphere system absorbs the remaining energy and re-radiates it into space as black body radiation given by Stefan-Boltzmann Law: , where T is the temperature. Assuming that the arrangement has come to equilibrium, (i) what is the average black body temperature of the Earth? (ii) Calculate the wavelength which the black body radiation from the Earth is at a maximum? (hint: At Equilibrium the total energy emitted is equal to the total energy absorbed.)
