dioxide released from fossil fuel power stations. 4.4.1.6 The combustion of is a major source of atmospheric pollutants that can be harmful to health and the environment. Carbon monoxide is formed by the incomplete combustion of hydrocarbon fuels when there is not enough air. Carbon monoxide is a toxic gas that combines very strongly with haemoglobin in the blood. At low doses it puts a strain on the heart by reducing the capacity of the blood to carry oxygen. At high doses it kills. Sulfur dioxide is produced by burning fuels that contain some sulfur. These include coal in power stations and some diesel fuel burnt in ships and heavy vehicles. Predict the products of combustion of a fuel appropriate information about the composition of the fuel and the conditions in which it is used. Explain the problems caused by increased amounts of pollutants in the air. Describe the effect of the following products: carbon monoxide on the human body sulfur dioxide and oxides of nitrogen on acidity of rain water sulfur dioxide and oxides of nitrogen on respiratory system 1 word equations for complete and incomplete combustion. Use equations to describe the reactions in terms of reactants, products made and number of each present. Should carbon monoxide monitors in every home be compulsory? Explain why the following can be produced in combustion: carbon dioxide carbon monoxide soot water vapour sulfur dioxide oxides of nitrogen. WS 1.4 Describe, explain or evaluate ways in which human activities affect the environment. Why is carbon monoxide particularly dangerous? Why do children and young people succumb more readily to carbon monoxide poisoning? How do CO monitors compare to smoke alarms? CO detectors use one of three types of sensor. Students investigate the types and decide which branch of Science they stem from. Students view graphs showing acid rain emission 1960s–present day.
