Which of the following samples would be the most compressible?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

CO2 (g)

Explanation:

In solids the interatomic or intermolecular space is least . It is most pronounced in gases . That is why inter molecular or interatomic attraction is least in gases . That is why gas flows .

Hence , when we try to compress a gas , due to inter molecular space , it is most likely to get compressed . It will be least compressed when we try to compress a solid because of lack of intermolecular space .

Occupational Safety and Health Administration has set the limit on the maximum percentage of carbon dioxide (CO2) in air a worke
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The minimum rate of fresh air in the room is 176 moles/min

Explanation:

High exposure of CO₂ has health effects as headaches, increased heart rate, elevated blood pressure, coma, asphyxia, convulsions, etc.

0,500 mole% of CO₂ in air means 0,500 moles of CO₂ per 100 moles of air

As the rate of sublimation of CO₂ is 0,880, the minimum rate of fresh air in the room must be:

\frac{0,500 moles CO_{2}}{100 moles Air} = \frac{0,880 moles CO_{2}/min}{X}

X = <em>176 moles of Air/min</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!
