As of October 4, 2017, the measured concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2 in Air) is 616 ppm by mass. This measurement is taken from the Mauna Loa observatory on the Big Island of Hawai’i. Consider that 616 ppm means air is 0.0616 % CO2 by mass (mass CO2/mass air). Calculate the mass of CO2, in micrograms, in 1.00 cubic foot of air.
i dont understand the steps. could someone explain the steps and not just show the steps

Concentration of CO2 in the Atmosphere Levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere are rising rapidly, far above any levels ever before recorded. Levels were around 278 parts per million in 1800, before the Industrial Age, and had never, in the hundreds of thousands of years before that, gone above 300 ppm. Levels are now nearing 400 ppm. Table 1 shows the rapid rise of CO2 concentrations over the last 50 years, also available in CarbonDioxide.1 We can use...
(8 pts) Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere dissolves in water to establish an equilibrium that can increase the acidity of aqueous solutions in the environment. This equilibrium is CO2 (g) ⇌ CO2 (aq), Kh = 3.1 * 10^2 at 25°C. Kh is called the Henry’s law constant, which relates the solubility of the gas CO2 in the aqueous solution, [CO2], to the partial pressure of CO2 over the solution, p(CO2): [CO2] (M) = Kh * p(CO2) (atm) During the preceding...
1. If, as of March 2017, we had about 407ppm of atmosphere CO2
and we continue to increase the amount of CO2 at the rate of about
2ppm. How many years will it take to reach 450ppm?

From March 2017 to March 2019 the atmosphere CO2 went from about
407ppm to 415.5ppm. What is the average increase in CO2 for those
two years?

(8 pts) Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere dissolves in water to establish an equilibrium that can increase the acidity of aqueous solutions in the environment. This equilibrium is CO2(g) = CO2 (aq), Kn= 3.1 x 10-2 at 25°C. Kh is called the Henry's law constant, which relates the solubility of the gas CO2 in the aqueous solution, [CO2), to the partial pressure of CO2 over the solution, p(CO2): [CO2] (M)= Kn · p(CO2) (atm) During the preceding decades, the atmospheric...
