Gases such as CO are gradually oxidized in the atmosphere, not by O2 but by the hydroxyl
Chapter 5, Problem 5.132(choose chapter or problem)
Gases such as CO are gradually oxidized in the atmosphere, not by O2 but by the hydroxyl radical, OH, a species with one fewer electron than a hydroxide ion. At night, the OH concentration is nearly zero, but it increases to 2.531012 molecules/m3 in polluted air during the day. At daytime conditions of 1.00 atm and 228C, what is the partial pressure and mole percent of OH in air?
