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

Which of these is a ball and stick model?
N76 [4]

The ball and stick model of C subscript 2 H subscript 4 is described as Option C: Each C has 2 H's connected to it each by 1 black.

This means the same as the 3D structure image of ethylene (C2H4) and means 2 C's connected by 2 black lines.

line.

The structure of ethylene is made up of 2 carbon atoms and 4 hydrogen atoms.

The carbon atoms are located at the middle position and the hydrogen atom surrounding the carbon atoms with two hydrogen atoms connected to each carbon atom. The two black lines connecting the carbons are the double bonds.

Lactase and carbonic anhydrase are examples of what type of substance?
Tomtit [17]
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the last option. Lactase and carbonic anhydrase are examples of enzymes. Lactase is an enzyme produced by a lot of organisms. Carbonic anhydrases, on the other hand, is a family of enzymes that catalyze the rapid interconversion of CO2 and H2O to bicarbonate.
