There are two important fuels A and B both of which are extracted from deep inside the earth. Fuel A is a thick, dark, foul smelling liquid whereas fuel B is a black solid. Combustion of both the fuels produces products, C, D, E and F. The product C makes the rainwater only slightly acidic but it is mainly responsible for causing global warming. The product D is neither acidic nor basic. It is harmless and does not affect the environment in any way. Both E and F attack breathing system of humans and are mainly responsible for causing acid rain. In addition to combustion of fuels A and B, the product F is also formed when lightning occurs in the sky. (a) What are (i) fuel A, and (ii) fuel B ? (b) Name (i) C (ii) D (iii) E, and (iv) F (c ) What is the process of formation of F during lightning known as ? (d) Which fuel is supposed to be exhausted sooner : A or B ? (e) Which fuel is mostly used for generating electricity at thermal power plants ?

CO_2 and H_2 O absorbs strongly in the infrared rrgion and its presence in the atmospheere dectrases the loss fo heat form the enrth by radistiion . This global warming is called the greenhouse effect (other gases , including the oxides of nitraongen form car exhauset freons from aerosols and refrigeratirs and methane from bacteria in the soil and in the rument cows , also add to the reeenhouse effect ). The concentration fo atmospheric CO_2 has increased by 10% . The is rsulting in the increase in the mean temperature fo the earth by 2. 5^@ C , varying form 2^@ C t the equlator to 4^@ C at the poles . This could have dramatic effects on the climate. As a result of freenhouse effect , thers can be : A: an increase in rate of egvaporation of water thus, untimely more rain , floodingn tec .
