The modern atmosphere
Water vapour in Earth's atmosphere varies up to 4%
An experiment to prove that 21% of the air is oxygen
At the start 100cm cubed of air contained
78cm cubed nitrogen
21cm cubed oxygen
1cm cubed argon
At the end only 8cm cubed of air remained
78cm cubed N2
1cm cubed Ar
All oxygen was used in the reaction
Reaction:
copper+oxygen
Copper oxide
2Cu+O2
2CuO
