. Hemoglobin (Hb) and oxygen gas form a complex (HbO2) that carries oxygen throughout the human body. Unfortunately, carbon mono

xide also binds to hemoglobin so that an equilibrium is established. Carbon monoxide poisoning occurs when the concentration of HbO2 in the blood is reduced. HbO2 CO HbCO O2 The first aid for a person suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning is to (1) remove them to an area of fresh air, and (2) administer oxygen. Using the principles of equilibrium, explain how each of these helps to restore the HbO2 concentration.

Answer:

1. Removing them to an area of fresh air. This helps to prevents further poisoning by the carbon monoxide and increase the amount of oxygen entering into the body. This will help to reduce the concentration of carbon monoxide binding oxygen

2. Administering pure oxygen goes a long way to enhance ventilation and increase the oxygen saturation to 100%. This will help to overcome the effect of the carbon monoxide and promote more hemoglobin binding

When 3.00 g of sulfur are combined with 3.00 g of oxygen, 6.00 g of sulfur dioxide (SO2) are formed. What mass of oxygen would b
Drupady [299]
Actually, we can answer the problem even without the first statement. All we have to do is write the reaction for the production of sulfur trioxide.

2 S + 3 O₂ → 2 SO₃

The stoichiometric calculations is as follows:

7 g S * 1 mol/32.06 g S = 0.218 mol S
Moles O₂ needed = 0.218 mol S * 3 mol O₂/2 mol S = 0.3275 mol O₂
Since the molar mas of O₂ is 32 g/mol,
Mass of O₂ needed = 0.3275 mol O₂ * 32 g/mol = 10.48 g O₂
