1 1 gram of SO 2 for every million mL of air (parts per million by mass per volume). 2  Write ppm in terms of cubic meters. 3  There are a million cubic centimeters in a cubic meter (1 cm 3 = (10 -2) 3 m 3 = 10 -6 m 3) so one part per million of SO 2 by volume in air is actually 1 cm 3 SO 2 / 1 m 3 of air. 1 gram of SO 2 for every million grams of air (parts per million by mass); 2  1 mL of SO 2 for every million mL of air (parts per million by volume); 3  1 gram of SO 2 for every million mL of air (parts per million by mass per volume). 4  Write ppm in terms of cubic meters.
EXPERT ANSWER. Coal if formed when dead animals and plants got buried inside the layer of Earth. The layers increase form time to time and more dead plants and animals get buried in the layers.Therefore, coal is found in layers.For example, let us consider the layers of sandwich, on the first bread we apply the toppings and cover it another slice. Then some more topping is added to second slice and is covered by third slide.XPERT ANSWER. Coal if formed when dead animals and plants got buried inside the layer of Earth. The layers increase form time to time and more dead plants and animals get buried in the layers.
Carbon from burning coal reacts with air to form carbon dioxide. When carbon dioxide and other gases, such as those emitted from automobiles, accumulate in the earth's atmosphere, they form a shield that allows the sun's light and heat in, but doesn't let it out. This condition is called the greenhouse effect.here are two ways to remove coal from the ground: surface mining and underground mining. Surface mining is used when a coal seam is relatively close to the surface, usually within 200 feet. The first step in surface mining is to remove and store the soil and rock covering the coal (called the overburden).
