The reaction of removing CO2
using LiOH is the following:
2 LiOH + CO2 -----> Li2CO3
+ H2O
By solving the amount of CO2
the LiOH can scrub:
(3.50 × 10^4 g LiOH) (1 mol LiOH/
24 g LiOH) ( 1 mol CO2 / 2 mol LiOH) ( 44 g CO2 /1 mol CO2) = 32, 083.33 g CO2
it can scrub
<span>Since number of astronaut = 32,
083.33 g / 9 (8.8 × 10^2) = 4 astronaut</span>
Answer:
a star shines due to thermonuclear fusion
Explanation:
The absolute value of the difference in electronegativity (ΔEN) of two bonded atoms provides a rough measure of the polarity to be expected in the bond and, thus, the bond type. When the difference is very small or zero, the bond is covalent and nonpolar. When it is large, the bond is polar covalent or ionic.
