- - - - Reported in milligrams per liter (mg/L) or parts per million (ppm). One ppm is equal to one mg/L
      - Complexometric titration
- - - - Used in Combustion and Respiration
      - Can be measured using copper filings and a glass tube with syringes, known as 'copper turnings method'
  - - - Carbon Dioxide
        
        0.03% of air
        
        Amount is increasing due to fossil fuels burning
        
        Product of complete combustion
        
        Necessary for life in small quantities
      - Carbon Monoxide
        
        Formed by incomplete combustion
        
        Poisonous
      - Methane
        
        Produced by decomposing biological matter
        
        Responsible for 30% of global temperature rise
        
        Traps more heat than CO2
      - Nitrogen oxide
        
        Forms inside furnaces
        
        Causes respiratory issues
      - Sulfur dioxide
        
        Formed by burning sulfurous compounds in fossil fuels
        
        Causes acid rain
- - - - Natural Greenhouse Effect
        
        Necessary for maintaining Earth’s temperature and making life possible.
      - Enhanced Greenhouse Effect
        
        Human activities increase GHG levels, trapping more heat and causing climate change.
