. 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

Avogadro's law states that the _____ of a gas is directly proportional to the _____ of the gas when _____ stay the same
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

The three blanks for this answer, are

1. volumen

2. moles

3. Temperature and pressure.

So, Avogadro's law states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the moles of the gas when temperature and pressure stay the same

Explanation:

Imagine you have 10 moles of a gas which is contained in 50 L. How many moles of that gas, you will have if the volumen has been reduced to 10 L. (Of course, don't forget that T° and pressure are the same)

There is an equation like this, initial moles /initial volume = moles at the end/volume at the end, (Avogadro law for gases), so 10/50 =moles at the end/10.  When u operate, moles at the end = (10 x 10) / 50.

Moles at the end are 2. Did u get it?. Volumen has been reduced, also the moles.
