How many moles of air are there in a human lung with a volume of 2.4 L at STP? Explain your answer

Chemistry
1 answer:
ollegr [7]3 years ago
5 0
One mole of any gas at STP is about 22.4 liters (even for mixtures). This number comes from the ideal gas equation by setting n=1 and STP conditions:
V=nR/P =1 mole x 0.08206Latm/molK x 237K/1atm = 22.4L

so jsut divide: 893L/22.4L/mole = 39.9 moles

If the theoretical yield of RX is 56.0 g , what is the percent yield ?
maks197457 [2]
the complete question in attached figure

Let 
x------------------- >  actual yield
y------------------- > theoretical yield 
z------------------- > percent yield
we have that
z=x/y

we know
x=47 g
y=56 g

therefore

z=47/56=0.839 ---------------- > 83.9%

the answer is the option C 83.9%

What element is this? How do you know?
postnew [5]

Atom is the most basic unit of matter. They are the general term used to describe pieces of matter. But a different kind of atom makes up an element.  A combination of atom of different elements creates a molecule. For example, you have water; it has a chemical formula of H2O. If you separate H from O, you have two atoms. Two atoms for hydrogen and one atom for oxygen. However, they are of different elements. And when you combine them to form H2O, you create a molecule.
