Answer : 0.026 moles of oxygen are in the lung

Explanation :

We can solve the given question using ideal gas law.

The equation is given below.

PV = nRT

We have been given P = 21.1 kPa

Let us convert pressure from kPa to atm unit.

The conversion factor used here is 1 atm = 101.3 kPa.

21.1 kPa \times \frac{1atm}{101.3kPa}= 0.208 atm

V = 3.0 L

T = 295 K

R = 0.0821 L-atm/mol K

Let us rearrange the equation to solve for n.

n = \frac{PV}{RT}

n = \frac{0.208atm\times 3.0L}{0.0821 L.atm/mol K\times 295 K}

n = 0.026 mol

0.026 moles of oxygen are in the lung

Write a scientific explanation that explains how modern whales differ from their ancient ancestors THIS IS A CER so can i get a
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Modern whales evolved by natural selection over long time periods through descent from common ancestors

Explanation:

According to the evolutionary theory proposed by Darwin, natural selection is a biological process by which organisms adapt and change in response to their environment. In this case, ancient whales that were better suited to environmental conditions survived and produced more offspring than non-adapted individuals. In consequence, predominant adaptive traits observed in modern whales were favored by natural selection in the past, while unsuccessful phenotypes progressively disappeared.

How many moles of FeCl3 could be produced from 6.1 moles of Cly?<br> 2 Fe + 3Cl2 —&gt; 2 FeCl2
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

4.1 moles of FeCl₃

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as shown below:

         2Fe    +       3Cl₂   →    2FeCl₃

Number of moles of Cl₂  = 6.1moles

So;

  We know that from the balanced reaction expression:

                       3 moles of Cl₂ will produce 2 moles of FeCl₃

Therefore    6.1moles of Cl₂ will produce \frac{6.1 x 2}{3}   = 4.1 moles of FeCl₃

The number of moles is 4.1 moles of FeCl₃

Which statement is true about molecule speed? (1 point)
ANTONII [103]

Faster molecules have fewer collisions than slower molecules is True about molecular speed.

<h3>What is Molecular speed?</h3>

Molecular speed refers to the average distance gases or molecules travelled atca particular time rate.

It is valid in ideal gas, where the molecules do not interact with others.

Average molecular speed = Square root (3 (ideal gas constant) * (Temperature)/m)

Therefore, Faster molecules have fewer collisions than slower molecules is True about molecular speed.

Learn more about molecular speed from the link below.
