Answer:

Therefore, the partial pressure of oxygen at high altitudes is less than at sea level.

Explanation:

The deep ocean thus has higher oxygen because rates of oxygen consumption are low compared with the supply of cold, oxygen-rich deep waters from polar regions. In the surface layers, oxygen is supplied by exchange with the atmosphere.

Gasoline has a density of 0.749 g/ml. how many pounds does 19.2 gallons of gasoline weigh?

Svetradugi [14.3K]

A good first step is writing the amount in terms of ml.

19.2 gallons = 72.68 L = 72680 ml

that would mean it weighs 0.749*720680g = 54437.32ml = 54.437 L

hope that helps :)

A 5.0 L sample of gas at 300. K is heated to 600. K. What will the new volume of the gas be?

Ainat [17]

Answer:

$V_2=10L$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to calculate the required new volume by using the Charles' law as a directly proportional relationship between temperature and volume:

$\frac{V_2}{T_2} =\frac{V_1}{T_1}$

In such a way, we solve for V2 and plug in V1, T1 and T2 to obtain:

$V_2=\frac{V_1T_2}{T_1}\\\\V_2=\frac{5.0L*600K}{300K}\\\\V_2=10L$

. how many lone pairs of electrons are present in the lewis structure of calcium sulfide?

miv72 [106K]

Answer:
<u>Four</u>

Explanation:
Calcium Sulfide is an ionic compound made up of Ca²⁺ and S²⁻.
Ca²⁺ is formed as,

Ca → Ca²⁺ + 2 e⁻

These two electrons are accepte by Sulfur as,

S + 2 e⁻ → S²⁻

So, before accepting 2 electrons S was having six valence electrons, after accepting two electrons from Ca it has 8 electrons which are present in four pairs as shown below,
