A boy with pneumonia has lungs with a volume of 1.7 L that fill with 0.070 mol of air when he inhales. When he exhales, his lung

volume decreases to 1.3 L. Enter the number of moles of gas that remain in his lungs after he exhales. Assume constant temperature and pressure.

Answer:

0.053moles

Explanation:

Hello,

To calculate the number of moles of gas remaining in his after he exhale, we'll have to use Avogadro's law which states that the volume of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to its number of moles provided that temperature and pressure are kept constant. Mathematically,

V = kN, k = V / N

V1 / N1 = V2 / N2= V3 / N3 = Vx / Nx

V1 = 1.7L

N1 = 0.070mol

V2 = 1.3L

N2 = ?

From the above equation,

V1 / N1 = V2 / N2

Make N2 the subject of formula

N2 = (N1 × V2) / V1

N2 = (0.07 × 1.3) / 1.7

N2 = 0.053mol

The number of moles of gas in his lungs when he exhale is 0.053 moles

7. Suppose each of these isotopes emits a beta particle. Give the iso-
Volgvan

In a beta emission, the mass number of the daughter nucleus remains unchanged while the atomic number of the daughter nucleus increases by one unit. The following are isotopes produced when the following undergo beta emission;

1) potassium-42  ------> Ca - 42

2) iodine-131 ------------> Xe - 131

3)  iron-52 ---------------> Co - 52

4)  sodium-24 -----------> Mg -24

The daughter nucleus formed after beta emission is found one place after its parent in the periodic table.

Regarding the stability of the daughter nuclei, a nucleus is unstable if the neutron-proton ratio is less than 1 or greater than 1.5.

Hence, the following daughter nuclei are stable; Ca - 42, Xe - 131, Mg -24.

CO 2 is an element. true or false
iren [92.7K]

Answer: false

Explanation:

f this helps typically an element wont have a 2 next to it, to see if something is an element or compound check for the element on the periodic table and see if the structure or name matches the one given to you on the question. for example here it is Co2 on the periodic table it's simply written as Co

co2 or carbon dioxide is a  compound not an element, you can even check this on the periodic table

What is the charge of an ion that has 12 protons and 13 electrons
AlekseyPX
Each proton serves as a positive charge and each electron serves as a negative charge. The two charges neutralize each other on a 1:1 ratio. In your question, you have 12 protons to 13 electrons. That means there's a net -1 charge because there is one more electron than protons.
