Chapters 5,10,18,19,20 Test Study Guide FRQ -Air Pollution= Is the presence of chemicals in the troposphere in high concentrations high enough to harm organisms, ecosystems, or materials, and high enough to alter climate. -Outdoor Pollutants= mostly human inputs, occur in industrialized and urban areas where people, cars, and factories are concentrated. (burning fossil fuels in power plants, factories, and cars) -Two Types of Outdoor Pollution -Primary Pollutants= Harmful substances that are emitted directly into the air. (most hydrocarbons and suspended particles) -Secondary Pollutants= Some primary pollutants reacting with one another or with the basic components of air to form new harmful pollutants. (Most NO3- AND SO42- Salts)

Outdoor Air Pollutants What are the major classes of outdoor pollutants? Natural sources--- 1. dust and other suspended particles 2. Sulfur oxides from volcanoes 3. Carbon oxides and particulates from fires 4. Pollen 5. Methane and hydrogen sulfide from decay 6. Salt from oceans * Most spread out and are rarely harmful http://www.epa.gov/air/urbanair/ Other sources--- 1. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) methane, propane, CFC 2. Suspended particulate matter (SPM) solids dust, lead, pesticides 3. Radioactive substances- radon, iodine 4. Hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) can cause birth defects, cancer
