Using Resources
Using the Earth's resources and sustainable development
- 3 things to know
- Chemistry Paper 2
Overview
Human needs met by the Earth's resources, how agriculture supplements natural resources, finite and renewable resources, sustainable development and how chemistry improves agriculture and industry, natural products replaced by synthetic ones, and interpreting data in tables, frequency tables, bar charts and histograms, including orders of magnitude.
What you need to know
Answer each one before you reveal it.
Which human need is met when crude oil is separated into petrol and diesel?
What is meant by a finite resource?
Questions from this subtopic
Each one with the model answer underneath.
- 1
Name four basic human needs that are met using the Earth's resources.
Model answer
Warmth, shelter, food and transport.
- 2
Which human need is met when crude oil is separated into petrol and diesel?
Model answer
Transport, because these fuels are burned in vehicle engines.
- 3
What does agriculture add to the natural resources that provide food, timber, clothing and fuels?
Model answer
It supplements them, so far larger and more reliable quantities are available than nature alone would supply.
- 4
What is meant by a finite resource?
Model answer
A resource that is being used up faster than it is replaced, so supplies will eventually run out.
- 5
From which three places are finite resources taken before being processed into energy and materials?
Model answer
The Earth, the oceans and the atmosphere.
- 6
What is sustainable development?
Model answer
Development that meets the needs of people today without preventing future generations from meeting their own needs.
