Answer:

0.5 moles of O₂

Explanation:

See the stoichiometry of the reaction:

2CO + O₂ → 2CO₂

2 moles of carbon monoxide need 1 mol of oxygen to react in order to produce 2 moles of carbon dioxide.

If I want to produce 1 mol of CO₂, I just need the half of O₂.

You will see in this rule of three. Ratio is 2:1

2 moles of CO₂ are produced by 1 mol of O₂ (Stoichiometry - reaction)

1 mol of CO₂ will be produced by ( 1 . 1) / 2 = 0.5 moles

Answer:

two moles

A mole of CO2 molecules (we usually just say “a mole of CO2”) has one mole of carbon atoms and two moles of oxygen atoms.

What is the equilibrium equation for the dissociation of formic acid in water? hcooh (aq) + h2o (l) ⇌ h3o+ (aq) + hcoo- (aq)?

Pani-rosa [81]

Formic acid when in water would dissociate into ions just like any acids. It would dissociate into the hydrogen ion and the formate ion. The equilibrium dissociation equation would be written as:

<span>HCOOH (aq) + H2O (l) ⇌ H+ (aq) + HCOO- (aq)

Formic acid is a weak acid which means that when in aqueous solution it does not completely dissociate into its corresponding ions. Only a certain amount that would be dissociated so in the solution there will be HCOOH, HCOO- and H+ molecules. It is also known as Methanoic acid and an important substance for the synthesis of a number of substances. It is naturally occurring in ants.</span>

Control of Blood pH by respiratory rate.

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

A) During this procedure ( hypoventilation ) The CO2 in the arterial blood vessels and the lungs increases and this drives the PH level in the system lower, and the equilibrium will shift to the right. this is because the Blood-PH level is controlled by CO2 - bicarbonate buffer system

B) The blood PH may rise to 7.60 during Hyperventilation because the removal of CO2 from the lungs causes the increase in $H^+$ which is directly proportional to the increase in Blood PH levels

C) Hyper ventilation before a dash would be useful because it will remove excessive Hydrogen ions and and raise the Blood PH levels in preparedness of the production of acids like Lactic acid

Explanation:

$CO_{2} +H_{2} O$ ⇄ $H^+ + HCO^-_{3}$

B) The blood PH may rise to 7.60 during Hyperventilation because the removal of CO2 from the lungs causes the increase in $H^+$ which is directly proportional to the increase in Blood PH levels

C) Hyper ventilation before a dash would be useful because it will remove excessive Hydrogen ions and and raise the Blood PH levels in preparedness of the production of acids like Lactic acid

How did scientists solve the nitrogen problem?

taurus [48]

Unfortunately, we have not fully solved the 'nitrogen problem'. To do this, we must halve the amount of nitrogen we dump into the environment by mid-century or our ecosystems will face epidemics of toxic tides, lifeless rivers, and dead oceans. And that to do that will require, among other things, almost doubling the efficiency of nitrogen use on the world’s farms.
