To provide for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the atmosphere and the blood
Answer:
15.95
Explanation:
This question is a modification of the calculation of the empirical formula of a compound given its percent composition and atomic weights of the elements in the compound.
Here we are given the formula and the percent composition, so we know that there are 4 atoms of E per 2 atoms of N so lets solve using the information given.
In 100 grams of the binary compound we have
30.46 g N
69.54 g E
The number of moles is the mass divided by atomic weight:
mol N = 30.46 g / A.W N = 30.46 g / 14.00 g/mol = 2.18 mol N
mol E = 65.54 g / A.W E
Thus,
4 mol E/ 2 mol N = ( 69.54 g/ A.W E ) / 2.18
2 A.E = 65.54 g / 2.18 ⇒ A.W E = 69.54 g / ( 2 x 2.18 ) = 15.94 g
So the A.W is 15.94 g/mol which is close the atomic weight of O.
Answer:
Hence the evaporation rate in pints per minute is 0.001583.
Explanation:
Now,
1.5 gallons of paint are used.
It has 5% solid, so total 95% of 1.5 gallon can evaporate(only the solvent part will evaporate).
95% of 1.5 gallon=(95/100)*1.5 = 1.425 gallons.
1gallon = 8 pints.
So 1.425 gallons=8*1.425 pints
=11.4 pints.
Evaporation requires 2 hours. That is 3600*2 seconds = 7200 seconds.
So evaporation rate= 11.4 pints/7200 seconds.
=0.001583 pints per second
