What is the total pressure of air in lungs of an individual with oxygen at 100. mmHg, nitrogen at 573 mmHg, carbon dioxide at 0.
ryzh [129]

Answer: The total pressure of air in lungs of an individual is 760.28 mm Hg

Explanation:

According to Dalton's law, the total pressure is the sum of individual pressures.

p_{total}=p_A+p_B+p_C...

Given : p_{total} =total pressure of gases = ?

p_{O_2} = partial pressure of oxygen = 100 mm Hg

p_{N_2} = partial pressure of nitrogen = 573 mm Hg

p_{CO_2} = partial pressure of Carbon dioxide = 0.053 atm = 40.28 mm Hg(1 atm = 760 mmHg)

p_{H_2O} = partial pressure of water vapor = 47 torr = 47 mm Hg  (1torr=1 mm Hg)

putting in the values we get:

p_{total}=(100+573+40.28+47)mmHg

p_{total}=760.28mmHg

Thus the total pressure of air in lungs of an individual is 760.28 mm Hg

Complete the following single replacement reaction. If they don’t react, just write “NR”
Kipish [7]

Here we have to complete the given single replacement reactions.

The replacement reactions are-

1) Fe (s) + CuCl₂ (aq) → FeCl₂ (aq) + Cu (s)

2) Cu (s) + FeCl₂ (aq) → NA

3) K (s) + NiBr₂ (aq) → NA

4) Ni (s) + KBr (aq) → NiBr₂ (aq) + K (s)

5) Zn (s) + Ca(NO₃)₂ (aq) → Zn(NO₃)₂ (aq)  + Ca (s)

6) Ca (s) + Zn(NO₃)₂ (aq) → NA

The replacement reactions can be explained in light of the redox potential.

The standard reduction potential of the half cells involved in these reactions are:

Fe²⁺ + 2e → Fe (E° = -0.441V); Cu²⁺ + 2e → Cu (E° = 0.674V)

Ni²⁺ + 2e → Ni (E° = -0.23V); Zn²⁺ + 2e → Zn (E° = -0.763V)

We know the half cell reactions in which the standard reduction potentials are positive are allowed.

1) The reaction is possible as Cu²⁺/Cu and Fe/Fe²⁺ standard reduction potentials are positive.

2) The reaction is not possible as Cu/Cu²⁺ and Fe²⁺/Fe standard reduction potentials are negative.

3) The reaction is not possible as Ni²⁺/Ni standard reduction potential is negative.

4) The reaction is possible as Ni/Ni²⁺ standard reduction potential is positive.

5) The reaction is possible as Zn/Zn²⁺ standard reduction potential is positive.

6) The reaction is possible as Zn²⁺/Zn standard reduction potential is negative.

What would happen to a diver who does no exhale while surfacing from a 30 m dive?
sertanlavr [38]
Their lungs would try to expand to about 4 timed the normal volume which would force air into the various body tissues. this can cause a lung expansion injury and it could case air embolism. Air embolism is when air bubbles get trapped in blood vessels. This can lead to a blockage which will could be fatal.

Identify the element: 6 energy level, metallic, 82 election
Lady bird [3.3K]

<u>Answer</u>:-

Name of element = Lead

Symbol ♾ of Lead = Pb

Atomic no. = 82

Atomic mass = 207.2 amu

No. of protons = 82

No. of electrons = 82

Yes, lead(Pb) is a metallic element and certainly it has 6 electron shells which means 6 energy level.

If you find anything unclear you can ask me...
