Since we are told that 1L of air contains 0.21L of oxygen, you can use the conversion (0.21L O₂)/(1L air).  That means that you can just multiply 6.0L by 0.21L to get 1.26L of O₂.
that means that the lungs can hold about 1.26L of oxygen.
I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

What would happen to the annual rates of limestone (CaCO3) precipitation in the ocean if the ocean water were to become much war
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

CaCO3 exoskeleton dissolves in acidic water

Explanation:

The increasing CO2 level makes the ocean water acidic and hence reduces the pH. In such acidic environment, marine organism that produce calcium carbonate shells or skeletons are negatively affected. Coral reefs and coralline algae abilities to produce skeleton also reduces.  

Calcium carbonate dissolves in acid. Thus, the more acidic the ocean water is the faster and easier it is to dissolve the exoskeleton and shell of marine organisms made up of calcium carbonate

When two atoms form a covalent bond, they share electrons from all of their orbitals. All of their orbitals, in turn, combine to
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

It's false.

Explanation:

Molecular orbital theory states that the number of molecular orbitals is equal to the number of atomic orbitals that overlap. The lowest energy molecular orbital is formed when two atomic orbitals that are in phase overlap, forming a bonding molecular orbital. However, another molecular orbital is also formed, called an anti-binding orbital.

So if an "n" quantity of atomic orbitals is combined, an "n" quantity of molecular orbitals is formed.

Have a nice day!
