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

Construct a three-step synthesis of 1,2-epoxycyclopentane from cyclopentanol by dragging the appropriate formulas into the bins.
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

(1) Bromination, (2) E2 elimination and (3) epoxidation

Explanation:

  • In the first step, -OH group in cyclopentanol is replaced by more facile leaving group Br by treating cyclopentanol with PBr_{3}
  • In the second step, E2 elimination in presence of strong base e.g. NaOEt/EtOH produce cyclopentene
  • In the third step, treatment of cyclopentene with mCPBA produces 1,2-epoxycyclopentane
  • Full reaction scheme has been shown below

A 1.5 M solution of NaOH was made in a laboratory. If the solution made had a volume of 4.5 L, how many grams of NaOH were added
Crank

Answer:

270g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Concentration of NaOH  = 1.5M

Volume  = 4.5L

Unknown

Mass of NaOH added  = ?

Solution:

To solve the problem, we need to find the number of moles of the NaOH first;

 Number of moles  = concentration x volume

 Number of moles  = 1.5 x 4.5  = 6.75mol  

Now;

  Mass  = Number of moles x molar mass

 Molar mass of NaOH  = 23 + 16 + 1  = 40g/mol

  Mass  = 6.75 x 40  = 270g

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS!
Xelga [282]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

In the scientific method, you always begin with asking a question. Then, you do research, make a hypothesis, and test that hypothesis based on the initial question. If experimental data does not support your hypothesis, then you can restart by asking a new question, based on what you already know. Hope this helps!
