Carbon monoxide (CO) detectors sound an alarm when peak levels of carbon monoxide reach 100 parts per million (ppm). This level

roughly corresponds to a composition of air that contains 400,000 /(/mu/)g carbon monoxide per cubic meter of air (400,000 /(/mu/)g/m3). Assuming the dimensions of a room are 18 ft x 12 ft x 8 ft, estimate the mass (in grams) of carbon monoxide in the room that would register 100 ppm on a carbon monoxide detector. (1 meter = 3.28 feet)

Answer:

19.61kg

Explanation:

The first thing to do is divide the amount of feet into 3.28:

18ft*12ft*8ft=5.49m*3.66m*2.44m

With this information, we calculate the volume:

V=5.49m*3.66m*2.44m=49.03m^{3}

As we have the concentration and the volume, we can calculate the mass of CO:

m=400,000 \mu g/m^{3}*49.03m^{3}=19611158.4 \mu g

As this is a very big number, we can express it in kg by dividing in 10^6:

19611158.4 \mu g/10^{6}=19.61 kg

What happens when the electron moves from the first energy level to the second energy level?
STatiana [176]
If an electron moves up from the first orbit to the higher energy levels, energy will be absorbed by the electron itself and no emission line produced.
But if it moves from the orbits 6,5,4 and 3 to orbit 2, energy will be released by the electron and different emission lines wll be produced.

How does insulin bind to cells and the mechanism involved in triggering the cells to take in glucose
Lera25 [3.4K]

Explanation:

Once blood glucose levels increase, pancreatic insulin migrates into a fat cell via the blood stream. Insulin then binds in the plasma membrane of the cell to an Insulin Receptor (IR). Through autophosphorylation, phosphate groups are then added to the IR,  causing GLUT4 molecules to come to the cell's surface.
