The placenta is the structure that allows for transfer of wastes, oxygen, and
nutrients between the mother and the fetus. The fetal blood comes extremely
close to the maternal blood in the placenta, but there is no intermingling of fetal
and maternal blood. The fetus and mother can even have, and often do have,
different blood types.

When heated, calcium carbonate decomposes to yield calcium oxide and carbon dioxide gas via the reaction CaCO3(s)→CaO(s)+CO2(

Mazyrski [523]

Answer is: mass of calcium carbonate needed is 120 grams.
Chemical reaction: CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g).
V(CO₂) = 27.0 L.
Vm = 22.4 L/mol.
n(CO₂) = V(CO₂) ÷ Vm.
n(CO₂) = 27 L ÷ 22.4 L/mol.
n(CO₂) = 1.2 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(CO₂) : n(CaCO₃) = 1 : 1.
m(CaCO₃) = 1.2 mol.
m(CaCO₃) = n(CaCO₃) · M(CaCO₃).
m(CaCO₃) = 1.2 mol · 100 g/mol.
m(CaCO₃) = 120 g.

What is the volume of an oxygen tank if it contains 12 moles of oxygen at 273 K under 75 kPa?

Zina [86]

Given:
n = 12 moles of oxygen
T = 273 K, temperature
p = 75 kPa, pressure

Use the ideal gas law, given by
$pV=nRT \\ or \\ V= \frac{nRT}{p}$
where
V = volume
R = 8.3145 J/(mol-K), the gas constant

Therefore,
$V= \frac{(12\,mol)(8.3145\, \frac{J}{mol-K} )(273\,K)}{75 \times 10^{3} \, Pa}= 0.3632\,m^{3}$

Answer: 0.363 m³
