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>

A gaseous compound has a mass of 8.00 g at 2.81 atm and 300. K in a 1.00 L container.
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The question asks for moles, which can be obtained from P-V-T data using the ideal gas

equation: n =

RT

PV .

Now use the rearranged gas law to determine the number of moles in the sample:

!

n = PV

RT = (6.47 x 105 Pa)(5.65 x 10-4m3

)

(8.314 J

mol K )(21.7 + 273.15 K) = 0.149 mol.

All conditions except the pressure and volume are fixed, so P1V1 = P2V2 can be used: 3.62 L

101kPa

(647 kPa)(0.565 L)

2

1 1

Which of the following sets are isoelectronic (i.e., have the same number of electrons)? i. Br-, Kr, Sr2+ ii. C, N-, O2- iii. Mg
il63 [147K]

Answer:

ii. C,\ N^-,\ O^{2-}

Explanation:

Isoelectric species are the species which have same number of electrons.

From the given options:-

C,\ N^-,\ O^{2-} are the isoelectric species.

All the three species have same number of electrons which is equal to 6.

Carbon has 6 electrons.

N^- has 6 electrons.

O^{2-} has 6 electrons.
