Hemoglobin has a much greater affinity for carbon monoxide than oxygen. In a hyperbaric chamber (containing high levels of oxygen) can treat carbon monoxide poisoning, by displacing carbon monoxide from Hemoglobin competitively.
Hemoglobin has a much greater affinity for carbon monoxide than oxygen. This is because, a coordinate bond is formed with Carbon monoxide and Haem structure of the hemoglobin.
Carbon monoxide with Hemoglobin is called as Carboxy haemoglobin.
Presence of oxygen displaces the Carbon monoxide with Hemoglobin that is formed due to poisoning.
Hyperbaric chamber is a chamber which contains pure oxygen in a chamber. The atmospheric pressure is kept about three to four times than the normal, such that the replacement of Carbon monoxide from Haem can occur as fast as possible since this reduces the half life of the Carboxy haemoglobin.
It is advisable not to treat Carbon monoxide poisoning yourself.
Hyperbaric oxygen is used to treat the following conditions as well:
- Infections
- Wounds
- Air bubble is blood

Basically, the arrangement of electrons in electronic configuration follows three principles:
1. Aufbau Principle
You start from the highest energy level to the lowest. The arrangement is: <span>1s<2s<2p<3s<3p<4s<3d<4p<5s<4d<5p<6s<4f<5d<6p<7s<5f<6d<7p.
2. Hund's Rule
Each box in the configuration can hold up to 2 electrons. This rule tells you to fill all boxes of one particular subshell with 1 electron first, before double occupying them.
3. Pauli's Exclusion Principle
This rule tells you that the two electrons in a box shall always have opposite spins, represented by one half-arrow up and one half-arrow down.</span>
In an endothermic reaction products are <u>HIGHER </u>than reactants in potential energy and <u>LESS </u>stable.
Explanation:
Energy is input into the reaction in an endothermic reaction. This means the products are of a higher energy level than the reactants. Therefore the reaction increases Gibb's free energy and reduces entropy. Remember in thermodynamic stability involves an increase in entropy and a decrease in Gibbs free energy. Therefore the products are less stable than the reactants. This is why endothermic reactions do not occur spontaneously like exothermic reactions.
it has four significant figures.
Answer: 149
Explanation:
Using the ideal gas equation; PV = nRT
P= Pressure = 0.910 atm, T= Temperature = ?
V= Volume = 4.0L R = Gas constant = 0.08206 L.atm/mol/K
n = number of moles = 0.297
Making 'T' the subject of the formular, we have;
T = P V/ n R = 0.910 x 4 / 0.297 x 0.08206
= 149
