Answer:

126 mm Hg

Explanation:

the percentage by volume of oxygen in the air is 21%. Therefore it also contributes to the 21% of the total barometric pressure of the air.

Now, 21% of 600 mm Hg

=21/100*600= 126mm Hg

therefore The partial pressure of O2in Antonito’s air is approximately is 126 mm of Hg.

Answer:

The correct answer is option b. 126

Explanation:

Hi! Let's solve this!

We have 21% oxygen in the air, the rest is mostly nitrogen (78%) and the remaining 5 are other gases. So:

The partial pressure of oxygen is 21% of 600 mmHg.

That is calculated as follows:

ppO2 = 600 * 21/100 = 126 mmHg

We conclude that the correct answer is option b. 126

Sometimes people do not want to change their belief in a theory because:
Ber [7]

One of my passions is keeping up with creationist (and I include Intelligent Design here) attempts to  change what science is.    They wish to supplant the reason and evidence that is the basis for good science with faith instead – specifically their faith. 

Sometimes, actually often, it can become discouraging looking at how many battles must be fought to ensure our schools continue to teach good science; listening to all the politicians expressing their ignorance of science by expressing doubts about evolution; and seeing all the letters and forum responses from those who let their religion totally blind their ability to reason and fairly judge evidence. 

For example, consider these quotes from various prominent politicians:

“There are clear indications from our people who have amazing intellectual capability that this didn’t happen by accident and a creator put this in place,”

“Now, what was his time frame and how did he create the earth that we know? I’m not going to tell you that I’ve got the answers to that,” Perry said. “I believe that we were created by this all-powerful supreme being and how we got to today versus what we look like thousands of years ago, I think there’s enough holes in the theory of evolution to, you know, say there are some holes in that theory.”  Governor and Presidential candidate Rick Perry
