Answer:

a) V air/day = 8640 L air  an adult breaths / day

b) 0.0181 L CO intake a person / day

Explanation:

a) one average person has 12 breaths for min:

  • P = 12 breath/min

in each breath it take an average  of 500 mL on air.

  • 1 breath ≅ 500 mL air

⇒ 12 breath / min * 500mL air / breath = 6000 mL air / min

the average air volume per day of a person is:

⇒ Vair/day = 6000 mL air / min * (60 min / h) * ( 24 h / day ) = 8640000 mLair / day * ( L / 1000 mL)

⇒ V air / day = 8640 L / day

b) 2.1 E-6 L CO / L air * 8640 L air / day = 0.0181 L CO / day

Answer:

Scientists believe the batteries (if that is their correct function) were used to electroplate items such as putting a layer of one metal (gold) onto the surface of another (silver), a method still practiced in Iraq today.

How is nuclear energy generated?
balandron [24]
Nuclear power plants heat water to produce steam. The steam is used to spin large turbines that generate electricity. ... In nuclear fission, atoms are split apart to form smaller atoms, releasing energy. Fission takes place inside the reactor of a nuclear power plant.

Learning Objectives

Molecules must collide in order to react.

In order to effectively initiate a reaction, collisions must be sufficiently energetic (kinetic energy) to break chemical bonds; this energy is known as the activation energy.

As the temperature rises, molecules move faster and collide more vigorously, greatly increasing the likelihood of bond breakage upon collision.

Collision theory explains why different reactions occur at different rates, and suggests ways to change the rate of a reaction. Collision theory states that for a chemical reaction to occur, the reacting particles must collide with one another. The rate of the reaction depends on the frequency of collisions. The theory also tells us that reacting particles often collide without reacting. For collisions to be successful, reacting particles must (1) collide with (2) sufficient energy, and (3) with the proper orientation.

What is a key difference between an electrolytic cell and a voltaic cell? The anode is where the oxidation takes place. The cath
Volgvan
the answer is "There is an outside energy source." in voltaic cells, there is not need of an external source of energy because they involve spontaneous reactions. 

in both types of cells, the electrons move from anode to cathode, the anode is where oxidation takes place and cathode for reduction (an ox, red cat). also both have two half reactions.
