The solubility of N2 in blood at 37°C and a partial pressure of 0.80 atm is 5.6 ✕ 10−4 mol·L−1. A deep-sea diver breathes compre

ssed air with a partial pressure of N2 equal to 3.8 atm. Assume that the total volume of blood in this diver's body is 6.0 L. Calculate the amount of N2 gas released (in liters) when the diver returns to the surface of water, where the partial pressure of N2 is 0.80 atm.

Answer:

0.0126 moles are released

Explanation:

Using Henry's law, where the amount of dissolved gas in a liquid is proportional to its partial pressure above the liquid:

S = k×P

<em>Where S is solubility (5.6x10⁻⁴molL⁻¹), k is Henry's constant and P is partial pressure (0.80atm)</em>

Replacing:

<em>5.6x10⁻⁴molL⁻¹ / 0.80atm = 7x10⁻⁴molL⁻¹atm⁻¹</em>

Thus, with Henry's constant, solubility of N₂ when partial pressure is 3.8atm is:

S = 7x10⁻⁴molL⁻¹atm⁻¹ × 3.8atm

S = 2.66x10⁻³molL⁻¹

Thus, when the deepd-sea diver has a pressure of 3.8amt, moles dissolved are:

6.0L × 2.66x10⁻³molL⁻¹ = <em>0.01596 moles of N₂</em>

At the surface, pressure is 0.80atm and solubility is 5.6x10⁻⁴molL⁻¹, moles dissolved are:

6.0L × 5.6x10⁻⁴molL⁻¹ = <em>3.36x10⁻³mol</em>

Thus, released moles are:

0.01596mol - 3.36x10⁻³mol = <em>0.0126 moles are released</em>

When water is electrolyzed, it splits into hydrogen and oxygen.
Westkost [7]

The mass of water is equal to the combined mass of hydrogen and oxygen.

<h3>What is Mass?</h3>

This is defined as the quantity of matter in a physical body. The electrolysis reaction of water can be seen below:

2 H₂O ---> 2 H₂ + O₂

We can deduce that 36 grams of H₂O dissociated to give 4 grams of H₂ and 32 grams of O₂ which option D was chosen as the appropriate choice.

The human body has four types of tissues, and the eye contains all four. Which statement correctly pairs the part of the eye
stepladder [879]

Answer:

The correct answer is D) Nerve tissue is found in the retina, the rods and cones at the back of the eye.

Explanation:

The rods and cones are photoreceptors (that is nerve cells within the eyes that can sense light) which is situated in the retina.

These photoreceptors also sense colours and send these signals into the optic nerve for transmission to the brain.

Cheers
