Moles are the ratio of the mass and the molar mass of the substance given and is estimated in mol. The moles that the lungs contain when it is full is 0.12 moles.

<h3>What is the relation of the volume and moles?</h3>

Moles of the substances are directly proportional to the volume of the substance and can be shown as,

\rm \dfrac{V_{1}}{V_{2}}= \dfrac{n_{1}}{n_{2}}

Here,

Initial volume \rm (V_{1}) = 2.9 L

Final volume \rm (V_{2}) = 1.2 L

Initial moles = \rm n_{1}

Final moles \rm (n_{2}) = 0.049 mol

Substituting values in the equation:

\begin{aligned} \dfrac{2.9}{1.2} &=\rm \dfrac{n_{1}}{0.049}\\\\&= \dfrac{2.9\times 0.049}{1.2}\\\\&= 0.12\;\rm mol\end{aligned}

Therefore, the number of moles in the lungs are 0.12 moles.

A sample in the laboratory is found to contain 3.36 grams of hydrogen, 20.00 grams of carbon, and 26.64 grams of oxygen. The mol
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Empirical formula is CH₂O.

Molecular formula = C₆H₁₂O₆

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of hydrogen = 3.36 g

Mass of carbon = 20.00 g

Mass of oxygen = 26.64 g

Molar mass of compound = 180.156 g/mol

Empirical formula = ?

Molecular formula = ?

Solution:

Empirical formula:

It is the simplest formula gives the ratio of atoms of different elements in small whole number

Number of gram atoms of H = 3.36 / 1.01 = 3.3

Number of gram atoms of O = 26.64 / 16 = 1.7

Number of gram atoms of C = 20 / 12 = 1.7

Atomic ratio:

            C                      :        H            :         O

           1.7/1.7                :     3.3/1.7       :       1.7/1.7

              1                     :           2          :        1

C : H : O = 1 : 2 : 1

Empirical formula is CH₂O.

Molecular formula:

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass

Empirical formula mass = CH₂O = 12×1 + 2× + 16

Empirical formula mass = 30

n = 180.156 / 30

n = 6

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

Molecular formula = 6 (CH₂O)

Molecular formula = C₆H₁₂O₆

A mixture of methane and air is capable of being ignited only if the mole percent of methane is between 5% and 15%. A mixture co
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The air 9% mole% methane have an average molecular weight of:

9%×16,04g/mol + 91%×29g/mol = 27,8g/mol

And a flow of 700000g/h÷27,8g/mol = 25180 mol/h

In the reactor where methane solution and air are mixed:

In = Out

Air balance:

91% air×25180 mol/h + 100% air×X = 95%air×(X+25180)

Where X is the flow rate of air in mol/h = <em>20144 mol air/h</em>

<em></em>

The air in the product gas is

95%×(20144 + 25180) mol/h = 43058 mol air× 21%O₂ = 9042 mol O₂ ×32g/mol = <em>289 kg O₂</em>

43058 mol air×29g/mol <em>1249 kg air</em>

Percent of oxygen is: \frac{289kg}{1249 kg} =<em>0,231 kg O₂/ kg air</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

Which element, if combined with chlorine, will have the greatest attraction for the chlorine electrons? N P As
Mumz [18]
Basically, the answer for this would be N or NITROGEN. If we combine nitrogen with chlorine, what happens is that, it can attract more chlorine electrons towards itself. The reason is that, nitrogen is considered more electronegative compared to chlorine. So best answer for this is the first option.
