Answer:

Explanation:

During that process of being exposed to air and water while being left outside or in the elements for an extended period of time, a variety of different types of rusts can form, but the most common form is Fe2O3. Rust only forms on the outside of a metal surface because it requires exposure of oxygen and water to rust.

2.00 L of 0.800 M NaNO3 must be prepared from a solution known to be 2.50 M in concentration.How many mL are required? Plus don'

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

1.36 × 10³ mL of water.

Explanation:

We can utilize the dilution equation. Recall that:

$\displaystyle M_1V_1= M_2V_2$

Where M represents molarity and V represents volume.

Let the initial concentration and unknown volume be M₁ and V₁, respectively. Let the final concentration and required volume be M₂ and V₂, respectively. Solve for V₁:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} (2.50\text{ M})V_1 &= (0.800\text{ M})(2.00\text{ L}) \\ \\ V_1 & = 0.640\text{ L} \end{aligned}$

Therefore, we can begin with 0.640 L of the 2.50 M solution and add enough distilled water to dilute the solution to 2.00 L. The required amount of water is thus:
$\displaystyle 2.00\text{ L} - 0.640\text{ L} = 1.36\text{ L}$

Convert this value to mL:
$\displaystyle 1.36\text{ L} \cdot \frac{1000\text{ mL}}{1\text{ L}} = 1.36\times 10^3\text{ mL}$

Therefore, about 1.36 × 10³ mL of water need to be added to the 2.50 M solution.

Effect in carbon monoxide

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

Breathing air with a high concentration of CO reduces the amount of oxygen that can be transported in the blood stream to critical organs like the heart and brain. At very high levels, which are possible indoors or in other enclosed environments, CO can cause dizziness, confusion, unconsciousness and death.
