Why is there more co2 in the air that you breathe out than in the air that you inhale?

Chemistry

larisa [96]4 years ago

CO2 is produced during respiration by mitochondria.
To know why there is more CO2 in the air that you breathe out than the CO2 which you inhale, we have to know that the carbon which we breathe out as carbon dioxide comes from the waste products (the carbon in the food we eat) like the carbohydrates, fat, and protein which converted in the body by biochemical pathways to glucose. the end products of oxidation of glucose are water and carbon dioxide. This carbon dioxide which dissolved in the human blood is carried to the air in the lung by circulation before it exhales.

What does n, l and s mean in chemistry?
kirill [66]

Answer:

These three numbers, n, ℓ, and s can be used to describe an electron in a stable atom.

Explanation:

Each electron's quantum numbers are unique and cannot be shared by another electron in that atom. This property is called the Pauli Exclusion Principle.

Hope this helps!!! :)))

How many kilojoules (KJ) in 3.58 x 10^4 Calories?
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter B

Explanation:

Data

3.58 x 10⁴ cal to joules

                                  1 calories ---------------  4.184 joules

                                   3.58 x 10⁴ cal-----------    x

                                   x = (  3.58 x 10⁴ x 4.184) / 1

                                   x = 149787.2 joules

                                  x = 1.5 x 10⁵    J

What is the molecular formula of a hydrocarbon with m+ = 78?
fiasKO [112]

A molecular formula represents the exact number of atoms present for each element in the compound.  

For carbon atom: \frac{78}{12} = 6\frac{6}{12} ( as molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol)

Now, 6 carbon atoms are present and rest are hydrogen atoms i.e. 6

Thus, formula becomes C_{6}H_{6} ( C_{x}H_{y})

Now, check for unsaturation:

Degree of unsaturation  = \frac{2x+2-y}{2}

Substitute the value of x and y,

Degree of unsaturation  = \frac{2(6)+2-6}{2}

= \frac{12-4}{2}

= 4 implies one ring and three double bonds.

Thus, formula comes out to be C_{6}H_{6} i.e. benzene ring.

Write the molecular formula of the given compounds.
timurjin [86]

Answer:

(i) Al2(SO4)3

(ii) CaCl2

(iii) Fe(OH)2

(iv)AlPO4

(v) Fe(NO3)3

(vi) AuCl3

(vii) AgNO3

Explanation:

The numbers after the element/ion is a subscript meaning its put below the symbol

(i) Al has a charge of 3+ and SO4 has a charge of 2-

So to balance the charges 2 Al is needed to make the charge a 6+ and 3 SO4 is needed to make the charge a 6-. Once you can add the two charge values together to create 0, then you have the correct quantities

(ii) Same applies here, but Ca is 2+ and Cl is 1-, so 2 Cl- is needed to balance out the Ca

(iii) Ferrous is an ion of Iron with a 2+ charge, the other ion of Iron is Ferric which has a 3+ charge. OH has a charge of -1, so 2 OH is needed to balance out one Fe

(iv) Aluminum again has a charge of 3+ while PO4 has a charge of 3-, so they both balance out with one of each.

(v) Ferric is an ion of iron with a charge of 3+ and NO3 has a charge of 1-, so three of NO3 is needed to balance.

(vi) Gold has two charges, 1+ or 3+. However used in Gold chloride it is a 3+ and Cl is a 1-, so 3 of Cl is needed to balance one gold.

(vii) Silver has a charge of 1+ while NO3 has a charge of 1-, so they balance each other at one each.

The reactivity of an alkali metal depends on the metals ability to
Klio2033 [76]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

             The reactivity of an alkali metal depends on the metals ability to <u>loose an electron</u>.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

                         Alkali metals are elements present in first group of the periodic table. Following are the metals from top to bottom;

                                               Lithium

                                               Sodium

                                               Potassium

                                               Rubidium

                                               Cesium

                                               Francium

These s-block elements are considered the most reactive metals in the periodic table because they have only one electron in their valence shell and readily loose that electron to form an ionic bond with non metal. The general electronic configuration of these metals is as follow,

                                                       nS¹

Also, the reactivity of these metals increases from top to bottom in the group as the ionization energy decreases due to increase in shielding effect respectively.
