From the problem statement, this is a conversion problem. We are asked to convert from units of kilojoules to units of calories. To do this, we need a conversion factor which would relate the different units involved. We either multiply or divide this certain value to the original measurement depending on what is asked. From literature, we will find that 1 kilojoule is equal to 239 calories. We do as follows:
<span>
2.2125 kJ ( 239 calories / 1 kJ ) = 528.79 calories

By what factor would a scuba diver’s lungs expand if she ascended rapidly to the surface from a depth of 125 ft without inhaling
vova2212 [387]

It is found that scuba diver’s can safely ascend up to 52.53 ft without Breathing out.

By what factor would a scuba diver’s lungs expand if she ascended rapidly to the surface from a depth of 125 ft without inhaling or exhaling then

p_{1} =patm+pH_{2} O

p_{1} = 101325+ρgh_{1}

It is given that height is 125ft. Put the value of h in above formula:

h1  =125ft=38.1m

ρ=1.04g/mL=1040kg/m^{3}

g=9.81                                  

p_{1} =101325Pa+388711.44

p_{1}   =490036.44‬Pa                

p_{2} =p atm  =101325Pa

It is known that volume and pressure can be expressed as:

V*P=const.

where, V is volume and P is pressure.

Now,              

V_{1} *p_{1} =V_{2}  *p_{2}

V_{2} /V_{1}=p_{2} /p_{1}

V_{2} /V_{1} =490036.44/101325

V_{2} /V_{1}=4.84

Assume constant temperature

d of seawater = 1.04 g/mL; d of Hg = 13.5 g/mL.

now p_{1} =p atm​+pH_{2} O =490036.44Pa

V*p=const                              

where, V is volume and P is pressure.

Now,              

V_{1} *p_{1} =V_{2}  *p_{2}

V_{2} /V_{1}=p_{2} /p_{1}

V_{2} /V_{1} =490036.44/X

p_{2} =490036.44pa/(V2/V1) =326690.96Pa

p_{2} =patm +pH_{2} O

p_{2} =101325Pa+ρgh_{2}

326690.96Pa=101325Pa+ρgh_{2}

ρgh1  =151987.5-101325=225365.96‬‬Pa

ρ=1,04g/mL=1040kg/m3

g=9.81

h_{2} =225365.96/‬ρ∗g

​h_{2}  =225365.96  / ‬1040∗9.81

h_{2}  =22.09m= 72.47ft

ΔH=H_{1} -H_{2}

=125-72.47

=52.53ft

So she can safely ascend up to 52.53 ft without Breathing out

2. As NH4OH is added to an HCl solution, the pH of the solution
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

Nh4OH + HCL ---> NH4Cl + H3O

so ph decreases as H3O increases

and OH also decreases
