<span>1.40 x 10^5 kilograms of calcium oxide
The reaction looks like
SO2 + CaO => CaSO3
First, determine the mass of sulfur in the coal
5.00 x 10^6 * 1.60 x 10^-2 = 8.00 x 10^4
Now lookup the atomic weights of Sulfur, Calcium, and Oxygen.
Sulfur = 32.065
Calcium = 40.078
Oxygen = 15.999
Calculate the molar mass of CaO
CaO = 40.078 + 15.999 = 56.077
Since 1 atom of sulfur makes 1 atom of sulfur dioxide, we don't need the molar mass of sulfur dioxide. We merely need the number of moles of sulfur we're burning. divide the mass of sulfur by the atomic weight.
8.00 x 10^4 / 32.065 = 2.49 x 10^3 moles
Since 1 molecule of sulfur dioxide is reacted with 1 molecule of calcium oxide, just multiply the number of moles needed by the molar mass
2.49 x 10^3 * 56.077 = 1.40 x 10^5
So you need to use 1.40 x 10^5 kilograms of calcium oxide per day to treat the sulfur dioxide generated by burning 5.00 x 10^6 kilograms of coal with 1.60% sulfur.</span>
Answer:
1.15 atm
Explanation:
According to Dalton's law of partial pressures, the total pressure is the sum of all the partial pressures of the gases present in the mixture.
Therefore we have:
Total pressure = partial pressure of carbon monoxide + partial pressure of oxygen + partial pressure of carbon dioxide
We were given the following:
Total pressure = 2.45 atm
Pressure of oxygen = 0.65 atm
Pressure of carbon monoxide = x
Pressure of carbon dioxide = 0.65 atm
Therefore:
2.45 = x + 0.65 + 0.65
2.45 = x + 1.3
x = 2.45 - 1.3
x = 1.15 atm
I believe/thought they were very similar due to the fact that they both undergo a process called “oxidation” where they release oxygen into the atmosphere.

Answer:
1.60x10⁶ billions of g of CO₂
Explanation:
Let's calculate the production of CO₂ by a single human in a day. The molar mass of glucose is 180.156 g/mol and CO₂ is 44.01 g/mol. By the stoichiometry of the reaction:
1 mol of C₆H₁₂O₆ -------------------------- 6 moles of CO₂
Transforming for mass multiplying the number of moles by the molar mass:
180.156 g of C₆H₁₂O₆ ----------------- 264.06 g of CO₂
4.59x10² g ---------------- x
By a simple direct three rule:
180.156x = 121203.54
x = 672.77 g of CO₂ per day per human
So, in a year, 6.50 billion of human produce:
672.77 * 365 * 6.50 billion = 1.60x10⁶ billions of g of CO₂
