What they breathe is compressed air. Yes normal air that every one breathes. This is compressed to 200bar and can last for approx. half an hour depending on the diver. What is exhaled is is also the same, namely carbon dioxide.
<span>Sometimes divers mix gases to different ratios to give themselves longer dive times. This is called 'Ni-trox', which means ( Nitrogen/ Oxygen mixture). The gases exhaled are slightly different. </span>

In order to make 159 ml of a 0.135 M benzoic acid solution, what mass of benzoic acid (C7H6O2) is required?

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

159 mL of .135 M benzoic acid will contain

.159 x .135 = .021465 moles of benzoic acid.

Molecular weight of benzoic acid = 122 gm

grams of .021465 moles = 122 x .021465 = 2.6 grams .

So 2.6 grams of benzoic acid will be required .
