Digestion is a process where the larger, insoluble food molecules are converted to smaller, soluble molecules. The large molecules can’t be used by our body, so digestion essentially breaks down food into a form in which the body can use to provide with essential nutrients for growth and repair, to provide us with energy and to store energy etc.

Lead(II) sulfide, PbS, reacts with oxygen gas to produce lead(II)oxide and dioxide. If 0.500 moles of O2 were consumed using thi

Andreas93 [3]

I think you mean:
".. reacts with oxygen gas to produce lead (II) oxide and 'sulfur' dioxide..."

The balanced chemical reaction would be
2PbS + 3O2 --> 2PbO + 2SO2

The stiochiometric ratio is this: 3 moles of O2 produces 2 moles of lead (II) oxide. So,

0.500 moles (2/3) = 0.333 moles

Therefore, 0.333 moles of PbO is produced when 0.500 moles of O2 reacts with PbS.

In much of the world SI units are used in everyday life and not just in science. Why would it make sense for people in the Unite

KiRa [710]

Answer:

Find the explanation below.

Explanation:

It would make sense for the United States to use SI units in everyday life because most calculations they do, in daily activities such as business and science, affect people in other parts of the world. For example, a United States writer who writes about weight in pounds(lb) and ounce(oz) might not be easily understood by a reader in many other countries of the world. This is because the reader might not be able to convert the measurement using the standards of the SI units where weight is measured in kilograms(kg).

The international system of units is the upgraded system of measurement from the metric system and it is used by almost all the countries of the world except three countries of which the United States is included.
