Answer:

Because of pollution and other factors that contain carbon dioxide are warm, and it heats up the air.

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide levels in the Earth's atmosphere have been steadily decreasing. Carbon dioxide has a longer average lifetime in the atmosphere. The warming effect associated with carbon dioxide has remained unchanged

The conversion of cyclopropane to propene occurs with a first-order rate constant of . How long will it take for the concentrati

Gennadij [26K]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

The conversion of cyclopropane to propene occurs with a first-order rate constant of 2.42 × 10⁻² hr⁻¹. How long will it take for the concentration of cyclopropane to decrease from an initial concentration 0.080 mol/L to 0.053 mol/L?

Answer : The time taken will be, 17.0 hr

Explanation :

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

$t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}$

where,

k = rate constant = $2.42\times 10^{-2}\text{ hr}^{-1}$

t = time passed by the sample = ?

a = initial concentration of the reactant = 0.080 M

a - x = concentration left = 0.053 M

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

$t=\frac{2.303}{2.42\times 10^{-2}}\log\frac{0.080}{0.053}$

$t=17.0\text{ hr}$

Therefore, the time taken will be, 17.0 hr

The reaction of hemoglobin with oxygen can be written as follows. hb + o2 â hbo2 if the amount of oxygen available to the blood

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Oxygen is needed to carry out a lot of biochemical processes in the body. If the amount of oxygen available to the blood decreases significantly a lot of things will go wrong in the body. For instance, lack of adequate oxygen will lead to the death of neurons which will eventually leads to brain cells death and irreparable brain damage. Oxygen is also needed for cellular respiration, without respiration, there will not be oxygen for carrying out various cellular activities and this will result into death. Oxygen deprivation will also leads to difficulty in breathing and other associated problems.
