A scuba diver that ascends to the surface too quickly can experience decompression sickness, which occurs when nitrogen that dis

solves in the blood under high pressure, forms bubbles as the pressure decreases during the ascent. Therefore, an understanding of the gas laws is an important part of a scuba diver's training. In fresh water, the pressure increases by 1 atm every 34 ft below the water surface a diver descends.
If a diver ascends quickly to the surface from a depth of 102 ft without exhaling, by what factor will the volume of the diver's lungs change upon arrival at the surface?

Answer:

The factor that will change the volume of the diver's lungs upon reaching the surface is 4

Explanation:

Given data:

Pressure increases 1 atm = 101.325 kPa

34 ft = 10.3632 m

Depth of 102 ft = 31.0896 m

Question: What factor will the volume of the diver's lungs change upon arrival at the surface, V₂/V₁ = ?

The pressure at 31.0896 m:

P_{1} =101.325+(\frac{31.0896}{10.3632} *101.325)=405.3kPa

The factor will the volume of the diver's lungs change upon arrival at the surface:

\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1} } =\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}} =\frac{405.3}{101.325} =4

The order would be coefficient, law of conservation of mass, products, and reactants respectively.

<h3>Word matching</h3>

The number written in front of a chemical symbol in an equation is called a coefficient.

The total mass of a system being unchanged is known as the law of conservation of mass

The substances made in chemical reactions are called products.

The starting materials in chemical reactions are called reactants.

A gas has a pressure of 1.34 atm when the temperature is 237K. The gas is then heated until the temperature measures 312K. What
alexandr1967 [171]

The answer for the following question is answered below.

  • <em><u>Therefore the new pressure of the gas is 1.76 atm.</u></em>

Explanation:

Given:

Initial pressure of the gas = 1.34 atm

Initial temperature of the gas = 273 K

final temperature of the gas = 312 K

To solve:

Final temperature of the gas

We know;

From the ideal gas equation

P × V = n × R × T

So;

from the above equation we can say that

    <em>P ∝ T</em>

     \frac{P}{T} = constant  

     \frac{P_{1} }{P_{2} } = \frac{T_{1} }{T_{2} }

Where;

P_{1} = initial pressure of a gas

P_{2} = final pressure of a gas

T_{1} = initial temperature of a gas

T_{2} = final temperature of  a gas

    P_{2} = \frac{1.34*312}{237}

    P_{2}  = 1.76 atm

<em><u>Therefore the new pressure of the gas is 1.76 atm.</u></em>
