One liter of air contains about 0.21 L of oxygen. When filled, the human lungs hold about 6.0 L of air. How much oxygen is in th

e lungs when they are filled with air? (Round off to the nearest hundredths place.)

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.

In which of the pairs listed below are both compounds strong electrolytes? Are any strong acids or bases?
Ganezh [65]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

NaCl and Sr(OH)2

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • An electrolyte is a substance that is either in molten or aqueous form that can be decomposed by passing an electric current through it.
  • Electrolytes are classified as either strong electrolytes or weak electrolytes.
  • Strong electrolytes are either strong bases or acids which completely ionizes to give mobile ions which are responsible for conduction of electricity.
  • NaCl is a salt and Sr(OH)₂ is a strong base, both are strong electrolytes.

You are given a solid that is a mixture of na2so4 and k2so4.
Murljashka [212]

Here we have to calculate the amount of SO_{4}^{2-} ion present in the sample.

In the sample solution 0.122g of SO_{4}^{2-} ion is present.

The reaction happens on addition of excess BaCl₂ in a sample solution of potassium sulfate (K₂SO₄) and sodium sulfate [(Na)₂SO₄] can be written as-

K₂SO₄ = 2K⁺ +  SO_{4}^{2-}

(Na)₂SO₄=2Na⁺ +  SO_{4}^{2-}

Thus, BaCl₂+  SO_{4}^{2-} = BaSO₄↓ + 2Cl⁻ .

(Na)₂SO₄ and  K₂SO₄ is highly soluble in water and the precipitation or the filtrate is due to the BaSO₄ only. As a precipitation appears due to addition of excess BaCl₂ thus the total amount of  SO_{4}^{2-} ion is precipitated in this reaction.  

The precipitate i.e. barium sulfate (BaSO₄)is formed in the reaction which have the mass 0.298g.

Now the molecular weight of BaSO₄ is 233.3 g/mol.

We know the molecular weight of sulfate ion (SO_{4}^{2-}) is 96.06 g/mol. Thus in 1 mole of BaSO₄ 96.06 g of SO_{4}^{2-} ion is present.

Or. we may write in 233.3 g of BaSO₄ 96.06 g of SO_{4}^{2-} ion is present. So in 1 g of BaSO₄ \frac{96.06}{233.3}=0.411 g of SO_{4}^{2-} ion is present.

Or, in 0.298 g of the filtered mass (0.298×0.411)=0.122g of SO_{4}^{2-} ion is present.
