Alveolar air (a mixture of nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide) has a total pressure of 0.998 atm. If the partial pressure of o

xygen gas is 0.198 atm and the partial pressure of nitrogen gas is 0.770 atm, what is the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in millimeters of mercury?

Answer:

22.8 mmHg

Explanation:

According to Dalton's law of partial pressures, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is obtained as the sum of the partial pressures if all the individual gases present in the mixture.

Since the total pressure of gases in the mixture is 0.998 atm, the partial pressure of carbon dioxide is;

PCO2 = [Ptotal - (PO2+ PN2)]

Hence;

PCO2 = [0.998 - (0.198 + 0.770)]

PCO2 = 0.03

Since

1 atm = 760 mmHg

0.03 atm = 0.03 × 760 /1

=22.8 mmHg

Which conditions result in the formation of frost?
hoa [83]

Answer:

In order for frost to be formed, you would need high humidity, below-freezing temperatures, a clear sky, and a calm wind. Also, note that frost mostly occurs on a surface that is solid, so I would also put in a hard surface to the answer.

Explanation:

You need the hard surface so that the frost can form, otherwise it would become something like a cloud.

You need high humidity so that there is lots of water to form on your solid surface.

You need below-freezing temperatures so that the water can freeze.

The other things are just from what the Internet told me.
