The united states emitted 19.5 million of nitrog3en oxides (NO) into the atmosphere in 1987. One metric ton (1) equals 1,000 kg.
How many kilograms of No were emitted to the atmosphere in the United States
during 1987?
To find the number of kilograms of NO emitted into the atmosphere in the United States in 1987, we can use the conversion factor that one metric ton (1) equals 1,000 kg.
Given that the United States emitted 19.5 million metric tons of NO, we can calculate the number of kilograms using the following steps:
1. Multiply the number of metric tons by 1,000 to convert it to kilograms:
19.5 million metric tons * 1,000 kg/metric ton
2. Calculate the result:
19,500,000,000 kg
Therefore, 19.5 million metric tons of NO emitted into the atmosphere in the United States in 1987 is equal to 19,500,000,000 kilograms.
