Given the four models described below.
If each model is subjected to identical light sources, predict possible outcomes for each of the systems. Rank in order of highest to lowest equilibrium temperatures based on the impacts of the additional CO2 and black paper.
Do you think the aquarium with only C02 will have a higher equilibrium temperature than the aquarium with only black paper on the bottom?
(a) What effect is the black paper going to have on the model system?
(b) From your knowledge of CO2, what effect might it have on the system?
(c) Do you think that the effects of the black paper and CO2 gas will be additive? If so, why? If not, why?
(d) Which of the models do you believe will have the hottest equilibrium temperature?
