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.

Al(s) + NiSO4(aq)<br> Balance
irinina [24]

Answer:

2Al(s) + 3NiSO4 --> Al2(SO4)3 + 3Ni

Explanation:

This reaction type is a single replacement. The format of a single replacement is:

A+BC --> B+AC

A= Al

B= Ni

C= SO

The coefficient 3 for Ni would become a subscript for  AC. After you plug those into the reaction you need to count how many of each are on the left side and try to get the same number on the right side. Both sides must be equal to have a balanced equation.
