Occupational Safety and Health Administration has set the limit on the maximum percentage of carbon dioxide (CO2) in air a worke

r can breathe at 0.500% by mole. If dry ice (solid CO2) is sublimating (becoming a gas) in a room at a rate of 0.880 mol/min, what is the minimum rate that fresh air has to be supplied to the room so that the concentration of CO2 in the room doesn't exceed 0.500% by mole? Assume the room is well mixed, and the volume of the solid dry ice does not change

Answer:

The minimum rate of fresh air in the room is 176 moles/min

Explanation:

High exposure of CO₂ has health effects as headaches, increased heart rate, elevated blood pressure, coma, asphyxia, convulsions, etc.

0,500 mole% of CO₂ in air means 0,500 moles of CO₂ per 100 moles of air

As the rate of sublimation of CO₂ is 0,880, the minimum rate of fresh air in the room must be:

\frac{0,500 moles CO_{2}}{100 moles Air} = \frac{0,880 moles CO_{2}/min}{X}

X = <em>176 moles of Air/min</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

The attractions that allow molecules of krypton to exist in the solid phase are due to:
OLga [1]

Answer:

4) Van der waals forces

Explanation:

Krypton (Kr) belongs to the noble gas group and has fully filled valence orbitals. In the solid phase, Kr exists as a white solid with a face centered cubic structure.

Intermolecular forces of attraction from the strongest to the weakest include:

Ionic > hydrogen bonding > dipole-dipole > london dispersion

Kr is monoatomic and non-polar. When fully filled (stable) valence orbitals of 2 Kr atoms approach each other in close proximity they experience a repulsive force which prevents the formation of strong bonds. Thus, the only force of attraction in Kr is the long range weak Van Der Waals force also known as the london dispersion force.

How many moles in 30.0 grams of h3po4
jok3333 [9.3K]
Molar mass H₃PO₄ = 98.0 g/mol

1 mole ----- 98.0 g
? mole ------ 30.0 g

moles = 30.0 * 1 / 98.0

= 0.306 moles

hope this helps!

Is C2H7 ionic or covalent? <br><br> what would you name NO4? <br><br> what would you name MgCl2?
Vlad [161]

C₂H₇ is a covalent compound

N0₄ will be name nitrogen(viii) oxide

MgCl₂ will be named magnesium chloride.

<h3>What are covalent compounds? </h3>

Covalent compounds are compounds which are formed when two electronegative atoms combine together by a sharing of electrons between them.

Covalent compound molecules are usually formed from a combination of non-metals.

The C₂H₇ is a covalent radical formed from the addition of a hydrogen ions to the covalent compound C₂H₆

<h3>What would you name NO₄?</h3>

The name given to a compound depends on the oxidation number of the component elements.

The oxidation number of oxygen is -2.

Since there are 4 atoms of oxygen, the total negative charge is -8.

Nitrogen will have to exist in the +8 state in order to give a neutral compounds.

Therefore, the name given to the compound will be nitrogen (viii) oxide.

<h3>What would you name MgCl₂? </h3>

Magnesium chloride, MgCl₂  is an ionic compound formed from the ionic bond between chlorine and magnesium.

Magnesium donates two electrons to two chlorine atoms to form magnesium chloride, MgCl₂.

A solution is made by mixing 33.0 ml of ethanol, C2H6O and 67.0 ml of water. Assuming ideal behavior, what is the vapor pressure
ivann1987 [24]
Grams ethanol = 33 ml times .789 gms/ml = 26.037 gms 

<span>Moles ethanol = 26.037 gms / 46 gms/mole = .57 moles </span>

<span>Moles water = 67 ml or 67 grams/18 gms/mole = 3.22 moles </span>

<span>total moles = .57 + 3.72 = 4.29 moles </span>

<span>Mole fraction ethanol = .57 moles ethanol / 4.29 moles total = 0.13</span>

<span>Moles fraction water = 3.72 moles water / 4.29 moles total = 0.87</span>

<span>Partial pressure of ethanol = mole fraction ethanol (.13) _ times VP ethanol 43.9 torr) = 5.707 torr </span>

<span>partial pressure water = mole fraction water .87) times VP water (l7.5 torr) = 15.23 torr </span>

<span>Total vapor pressure over solution = 5.71 torr + 15.23 torr = 20.94 torr</span>
