12 times breathe give 240 ml of pure O_{2}. Each breathe gives 20 ml of O_{2}.

Let us consider, volume of air per breathe= x ml.

Pure O_{2} from inhaled air= \frac{20}{100}x ml and Pure O_{2} from exhaled air= \frac{16}{100}x ml.

Pure O_{2} from inhaled and exhaled air= 20 ml

So, \frac{20}{100}x + \frac{16}{100}x = 20

Therefore, x = 55.5 ml

So, volume of air per breath= 55.5 ml.

Why does carbon have the ability to form multiple bonds?​
stepan [7]

Carbon has the ability to form multiple bonds because it has four valence electrons. Having four valence electrons means that carbon has a lot of space to form bonds with other atoms, or multiple bonds, in order to reach the full octet.

Hope this helps!! :)
