the ideal gas equation is PV=nRT  
 where P=pressure  
 V=Volume  
 n=no. of moles  
 R=universal gas constant  
 T=temperature  
 The universal gas constant (R) is 0.0821 L*atm/mol*K    
 a pressure of 746 mmhg =0.98 atm= 1 atm (approx)   
 T=37 degrees Celsius =37+273=310 K (convert it to Kelvin by adding 273)    
 V=0.7 L (only getting oxygen, get 21% of 3.3L)    
 Solution:  
 (1 atm)(0.7 L)=n(0.0821 L*atm/mol*K)(310 K)  
 0.7 L*atm=n(25.451 L*atm/mol)  
 n=0.0275 mole   
 Answer:   
n=0.0275 mole of oxygen in the lungs.

if 15 mol C is mixed with 10 mol O2 which reactant is the limiting reactant? Which reactant would be the excess reactant?
ioda

Answer:

C is the excess reactant.

Explanation:

Reaction is C + O2 --> CO2

1mol of C required to react with 1mol O2

Therefore 15 - 10 = 5moles of C will be in excess

Ethanol (C2H5OH) and water (H2O) are both liquids at or near room temperature. When a sample of ethanol is poured into a beaker
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

a. Are miscible because each can hydrogen bond with the other.

Explanation:

Both ethanol and water are miscible. The reason why they can both mix freely is due to the hydrogen bonds that will form between their molecular structure.

Hydrogen bonds are special dipole-dipole attraction between polar molecules in which hydrogen atoms are directly joined to an electronegative atom.

Ethanol has an hydroxyl group which will bond to form an intermolecular bond with the oxygen and hydrogen on the water molecule. This attraction makes them miscible.

g A spontaneous process is one in which: A. releases a large amount of heat B. may happen (is possible) C. will rapidly approach
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

A. releases a large amount of heat

Explanation:

A reaction is said to be spontaneous if it can proceed on its own without the addition of external energy. A spontaneous reaction is not determined by the length of time, because some spontaneous reactions are completed after a long period of time. They are exothermic in nature. An example is the conversion of graphite to carbon which takes a long period of time to complete. Spontaneous reactions are known to increase entropy in a system. Entropy is the rate of disorder in a system.

In the combustion of fire, energy is released to the surroundings as there is a decrease in energy. This is an example of a spontaneous reaction because it is an exothermic reaction, which causes an increase in entropy and a decrease in energy.
