Answer:

4 people

Explanation:

In order to know this, we need to gather the data.

First we have 3.5x10⁴ g of LiOH. This grams are to be last for the whole 9 days mission shuttle.

So, we first need to know how much of CO₂ will be neutralized by this mass. This can be done calculating the moles of LiOH, and then, the moles of CO₂

The molecular weight of LiOH is 23.94 g/mol and for CO₂ is 44 g/mol so:

CO₂ + 2LiOH -------> Li₂CO₃ + H₂O

moles of LiOH = 3.5x10⁴ / 23.94 = 1461.988 moles

We have a mole ratio of 1:2 so the moles of CO₂:

moles CO₂ = 1461.988 / 2 = 730.994 moles

The mass of CO₂ for the 9 days will be:

m CO₂ = 730.994 * 44 = 32163.74 g

Now, let's see how much it has to be used per day:

m CO₂/d = 32163.74 / 9 = 3573.75 g per day

This means that we can only take a few astronauts, and this number is:

n° astronaut = 3573.75 / 8.8x10²

<h2>n° astronaut = 4.06</h2><h2>In other words, only 4 astronaut</h2>

A gas occupies 1.00 L at standard temperature. What is the volume at 333.0°C?
AURORKA [14]
We use Charles's Law: V1/T1=V2/T2

Standard Temperature: 0 degree Celsius= 273K
333.0 degrees Celsius= 606K

Set up: (1.00L)/ (273K)= V2/ (606.0K)
⇒ V2= (1.00L)/ (273K)* (606.0K)= 2.22L

Hope this would help :))

Describe the capillary action in acetone compared to water
lakkis [162]
Capillary action is defined as the ability of a liquid to go up a narrow space without the help or opposition of external forces. One of the most important factors affecting capillary action is the intermolecular forces within a substance. The higher the IMF, the greater the capillary action. The H-bonding in water gives it greater IMF than acetone, so water has greater capillary action.

Which type of chemical reaction occurs in Ca + Cl2 mc009-1.jpg CaCl2?
gregori [183]

Answer : The correct option is, (a) Synthesis

Explanation :

Synthesis reaction : A chemical reaction where multiple substances or reactants combine to form a single product.

It is represented as,

X+Y\rightarrow XY

Combustion reaction : A chemical reaction in which a hydrocarbon react with the oxygen to give product as carbon dioxide and water.

It is represented as,

CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O

Single replacement reaction : A chemical reaction in which the more reactive element replace the less reactive element.

It is represented as,

A+BC\rightarrow AC+B

In this reaction, A is more reactive element and B is less reactive element.

Double replacement reaction : It is a type of chemical reaction where a positive cation and a negative anion of two reactants exchange places to form two new products.

It is represented as,

XY+AB\rightarrow XB+AY

(X and A are the cations, Y and B are the anions)

The given reaction is, Ca+Cl_2\rightarrow CaCl_2

In this reaction, calcium combine with the chloride to form calcium chloride as a product.

Hence, the given type of reaction is a synthesis reaction.

What is the sum of all charges in the formula for an ionic compound? +1 0 8 –1
Zarrin [17]

An ionic compound is formed between a metal and a non metal. The metal being electropositive can form a cation by transferring the electron to the electronegative non metal that gains the electrons to form an anion. Both the elements try to get a stable octet configuration by the transfer of electrons. The number of electrons lost by metal will be equal to the number of electrons gained by the non metal. Hence, the magnitude of positive charge on the cation will be equal to the magnitude of negative charge on the anion. Therefore, the overall charge on the compound will be 0

So the correct answer is the sum of all charges in the formula for an ionic compound is 0
