Monica [59]

The chemical formula of the ionic compound is XY₂.

<h3>Ionic compounds</h3>
  • Ionic compounds are compounds which are formed from the combination of negatively charged and positively charged ion.
  • Positively charged ions are formed by loss of electrons
  • Negatively-charged ions are formed from gain of electrons

<h3>Formation of ionic compounds</h3>

During the formation of the ionic compound between an ion X that has a charge of 2+ and ion Y has a charge of 1-, two negatively charged ions of Y are required to form a neutral ionic ionic compound when they react with X.

The chemical the formula of the ionic compound they form is as follows;

X²⁺  + 2Y⁻ ---> XY₂

Therefore, the chemical formula of the ionic compound is XY₂.

Assume the alveolar radii are 0.05 and 0.07 mm towards the end of exhalation. Knowing that air flows from high to low pressures,
xeze [42]

Answer:

0.286 mN/m^2

Explanation:

Using Laplace's law of surface tension:

P=\frac{2T}{r}

where:

P = pressure

T = surface tension

r = radius

In the longer alveoli with radius of  0.07 mm = 0.07*10^{-2}m; we have:

P =  \frac{2*25mN/m}{0.07*10^{-2}m}

P = 0.714 mN/m^2

In the smaller alveoli with radius 0.05 mm = 0.05 * 10^{-2} m; we have:

P = \frac{2*25mN/m}{0.05*10^-2m}

P = 1.00 mN/m^2

The pressure difference can now be calculate as follows:

Pressure difference = (1.00 - 0.714)mN/m^2

Pressure difference = 0.286 mN/m^2
