Animals breathe oxygen and release carbon dioxide during cellular respiration according to the equation below. How much oxygen i

kifflom [539]

Answer:

14.544 g of oxygen is needed to produce 120 grams of carbon dioxide.

Explanation:

Animals take in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide during cellular respiration. The reaction for the metabolism of the food in the animal body is:

$C_6H_{12}O_6 + O_2 \rightarrow 6CO_2 + 6H_2O + Energy$

As can be seen from the reaction stoichiometry that:

6 moles of carbon dioxide gas can be produced from 1 mole of oxygen gas in the process of metabolism of glucose.

Also,

Given :

Mass of carbon dioxide gas = 120 g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide gas = 44 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus, moles of carbon dioxide are:

$moles_{CO_2} = \frac{120 g}{44 g/mol}$

$moles_{CO_2} = 2.7273 mol$

As mentioned:

6 moles of carbon dioxide gas can be produced from 1 mole of oxygen gas in the process of metabolism of glucose.

1 mole of carbon dioxide gas can be produced from 1/6 mole of oxygen gas in the process of metabolism of glucose.

2.7273 mole of carbon dioxide gas can be produced from $\frac{1}{6} \times 2.7273$ moles of oxygen gas in the process of metabolism of glucose.

Thus, moles of oxygen gas needed = 0.4545 moles

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mol

The mass of oxygen gas can be find out by using mole formula as:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$Mass\ of\ oxygen\ gas = Moles \times Molar mass}$

$Mass\ of\ oxygen\ gas = 0.4545 \times 32}$

$Mass\ of\ oxygen\ gas = 14.544 g$

14.544 g of oxygen is needed to produce 120 grams of carbon dioxide.

POPULATION SIZE DECREASE

Population size can increase, but it can also decrease.

We know that amount of resources available affects the population size.

Natural disasters such as floods,fires,volcanic eruptions, can also affect the population size.

Sometimes the population size will decrease so much that it threatens the entire species.
