Chapter 20, Air Pollution
 * Friday 3/29/13 Weekend HW **
 * 1) Read the chapter opener p. 452
 * summarize the issue
 * 1) Read the first section, Atmosphere as a Resource p. 453
 * **MEMORIZE** the composition of the atmosphere and the layers of the atmosphere (see page 100).
 * 1) Read the second section - Types and Sources of Air Pollution, p. 453-457
 * address the first two learning objectives but...
 * make a table instead of a list using the attached excel sheet. It combines Table 20.1 and 20.2. What's not in the tables should be in the reading. Just to clarify Table 20.1 - the "Pollutant" is in purple and the "Examples" is in black under the pollutant. So you will write the same pollutant several times for each example (or write it once and leave the rest blank until you get to the next pollutant).
 * 1) Read both Case in Point issues, p. 457-459 and p. 459-461
 * summarize each

i. What kinds of particulates do you predict would stick to the tape? ii. How long should the tape be left in its location?
 * Monday 4/1/13 Class **
 * 1) Check off table as HW
 * 2) Pneumonic Devices for Layers of Atmosphere

 * 1) So what does the atmosphere do for us? Ecosystem services of Atmos
 * 2) Announce Quiz for Thursday
 * 3) Layers of Atmosphere in order from surface of earth to space (T S M Th E)
 * 4) Composition of the Atmosphere (percentages of Nitrogen, Oxygen and Other Gases)
 * 5) Three Ecosystem Services
 * protects the surface of Earth by absorbing much of the UV radiation coming from the sun
 * moderates the climate by distributing the Sun’s heat
 * redistributes water in the hydrologic cycle, and plays a role in other cycles
 * 1) Review table of Air Pollutants
 * Distinguish between Primary and Secondary
 * 1) A primary air pollutant is a harmful substance, such as soot or carbon monoxide, that is emitted directly into the atmosphere. A secondary air pollutant is a harmful substance formed in the atmosphere when a primary air pollutant reacts with substances normally found in the atmosphere or with other air pollutants.
 * 2) Review Questions p. 461: 2, 3, 1
 * 2. Why is ozone considered an air pollutant even though it is essential in the stratosphere?
 * 3. How is sunlight involved in the production of photochemical smog?
 * 1. What are particulates? Give at least three examples of different kinds of particulates.
 * If we were to place a piece of tape, sticky side out, on the wall or desk which of these air pollutants do you think would be captured by the tape?
 * 1) Construct and place slides
 * 2) Brief Notes on Air Pollutants


 * Monday 4/1/13 HW **
