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

If I initially have a gas at a pressure of 12 atm, volume of 23 liters, and temperature of 200 K, and then I raise the pressure
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer : The volume of gas will be 29.6 L

Explanation:

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 12 atm

P_2 = final pressure of gas = 14 atm

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 23 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 200K

T_2 = final temperature of gas = 300K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get the final pressure of gas.

\frac{12atm\times 23L}{200K}=\frac{14\times V_2}{300K}

V_2=29.6L

Therefore, the new volume of gas will be 29.6 L
