Reduced stroke volume and cardiac index results in a drop in blood pressure often seen when a patient is turned from supine to prone. Respiratory changes include a 30% to 35% decrease in respiratory compliance and increase in peak airway pressure. This in turn decreases venous return and cardiac output.

A 50.00 g sample of an unknown metal is heated to 45.00°C. It is then placed in a coffee-cup calorimeter filled with water. The
True [87]
First, in order to calculate the specific heat capacity of the metal in help in identifying it, we must find the heat absorbed by the calorimeter using:
Energy = mass * specific heat capacity * change in temperature
Q = 250 * 1.035 * (11.08 - 10)
Q = 279.45 cal/g

Next, we use the same formula for the metal as the heat absorbed by the calorimeter is equal to the heal released by the metal.

-279.45 = 50 * c * (11.08 - 45) [minus sign added as energy released]
c = 0.165

The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.165 cal/gC

Prob.: Consider the combustion of butane (C4H10):
never [62]

<u>Answer:</u> The moles of carbon dioxide formed in the reaction is 20 moles.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Number of moles of butane = 5.0 moles

The chemical reaction for the combustion of butane follows the equation:

2C_4H_{10}(g)+13O_2(g)\rightarrow 8CO_2(g)+10H_2O(l)

As, oxygen is present in excess. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, butane is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of products.

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of butane produces 8 moles of carbon dioxide.

So, 5 moles of butane will produce = \frac{8}{2}\times 5=20mol of carbon dioxide.

Hence, the moles of carbon dioxide formed in the reaction is 20 moles.
