Argon is a suitable choice for light bulbs because it's inert. Compared to a reactive gas like oxygen, the metal filimant would burn up in a reactive  enviroment, which is why a noble gas is used.

sdas [7]

Answer:

Because of oxygen toxicity.

Explanation:

Oxygen toxicity.

Oxygen has been known to cause central nervous system (CNS) toxicity when the pressure gets higher. This toxicity can cause convulsions, and this can cause the diver to drown.

The current standard maximum safe oxygen working pressure is 1.4 atm ppO2. This is equal to 56.5m/185′ when breathing air (21% O2 / 79% N). Below that depth the fraction of oxygen in a breathing gas must be reduced, and in order to maintain this maximum pressure of 1.4 ppO2, Helium must be added.

what is the pressure, in atmospheres, of 2.97 mol h2 gas if it has a volume of 73 liters when the temperature is 298 k? 0.50 atm
Triss [41]
P x V = n x R x T

P x 73 = 2.97 x 0.082 x 298

P x 73 = 72.57492

P = 72.57492 / 73

P = 1.0 atm

hope this helps!
