A sample of air from a home is found to contain 6.2 ppm of carbon monoxide. This means that if the total pressure is 695 torr, then the partial pressure of CO is __________ torr.

Environmental chemistry is the study of chemical processes in the air, water, soil, and living environments. It also studies how human activity affects these environments.  Environmental chemistry is an interdisciplinary science that includes atmospheric, aquatic, and soil chemistry. It involves studying the sources, reactions, transport, effects, and fates of chemical species in these environments.  Environmental chemists monitor the air, water, and soil to understand how chemicals enter the environment and affect human and ecological health.

Environmental chemistry is an interdisciplinary science that includes atmospheric, aquatic, and soil chemistry. It involves studying the sources, reactions, transport, effects, and fates of chemical species in these environments. 
Environmental chemists monitor the air, water, and soil to understand how chemicals enter the environment and affect human and ecological health. They also assess the long-term risks of contaminants in soil and groundwater. 
Some important topics in environmental chemistry include: Air pollution, Water pollution, Acid rain, Global warming and greenhouse effect, Soil pollution.
