Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Dead space is the volume of sir in the body which is inhaled but it does not takes part in the gaseous exchange this is because it does not contains alveoli.

Not all the air that is inhaled inside the body is used in the process of respiration.

The dead space in the lungs is the region which helps in conducting airways, the air is not perfused to the alveoli.

A molecule of ethyl alcohol is converted to acetaldehyde in one’s body by zero order kinetics. If the concentration of alcohol i
Oliga [24]

Answer:

(1) 0.0016 mol/L

Explanation:

Let the concentration of alcohol after 3.5 hours be y M

The reaction follows a first-order

Rate = ky^0 = change in concentration/time

k = 6.4×10^-5 mol/L.min

Initial concentration = 0.015 M

Concentration after 3.5 hours = y M

Time = 3.5 hours = 3.5×60 = 210 min

6.4×10^-5y^0 = 0.015-y/210

y^0 = 1

0.015-y = 6.4×10^-5 × 210

0.015-y = 0.01344

y = 0.015 - 0.01344 = 0.00156 = 0.0016 mol/L (to 4 decimal places)

A chemist adds 180.0 mL of a 1.42M sodium carbonate (Na CO,) solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the millimoles of sodium ca
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer: The millimoles of sodium carbonate the chemist has added to the flask are 256

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the number of moles dissolved per liter of the solution.

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{milli moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution in ml}}     .....(1)

Molarity of BaCl_2 solution = 1.42 M

Volume of solution = 180.0 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

1.42M=\frac{\text{milli moles of }BaCl_2}{180.0ml}\\\\\text{milli moles of }BaCl_2}={1.42M\times 180.0ml}=256milli mol

Thus the millimoles of sodium carbonate the chemist has added to the flask are 256.

The ksp of zinc carbonate (znco3 is 1.0 × 10–10. what is the solubility concentration of carbonate ions in a saturated solution
Trava [24]
Ksp - solubility product constant is equivalent to equilibrium constant, except this constant is used to determine the solubility of ions of a solid in a solution. 
ksp is the product of the soluble ions in the compound. Higher the ksp value, higher the degree of solubility.
ZnCO₃ (s) ---> Zn²⁺ (aq) +  CO₃²⁻ (aq)
                         n            n
ksp = [Zn²⁺][CO₃²⁻]
In the equation equal amounts of ions Zn²⁺ and CO₃²⁻ ions are soluble. 
amount of ions soluble = n
ksp is therefore equal to;
ksp = n x n
ksp = n²
ksp = 1 * 10⁻¹⁰ M
therefore 
1 * 10⁻¹⁰ M = n²
n = 1 x 10⁻⁵ M
therefore concentration of CO₃²⁻ = 1 x 10⁻⁵ M

1. A gas has a pressure of 799.0 mm Hg at 50.0 degrees C. What is the temperature at standard Pressure?
larisa [96]

Answer:

A = 674.33mmHg

B = 0.385atm

Explanation:

Both question A and B requires the application of pressure law which states that the pressure of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature provided that volume is kept constant.

Mathematically,

P = kT, k = P / T

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2 = P3 / T3 =.......= Pn/Tn

A)

Data:

P1 = 799mmHg

T1 = 50°C = (50 + 273.15) = 323.15K

P2 = ?

T2 = 273.15K

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

Solve for P2

P2 = (P1 × T2) / T1

P2 = (799 × 273.15) / 323.15

P2 = 674.37mmHg

The final pressure is 674.37mmHg

B)

P1 = 0.470atm

T1 = 60°C = (60 + 273.15)K = 333.15K

P2 = ?

T2 = 273.15K

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

Solve for P2,

P2 = (P1 × T2) / T1

P2 = (0.470 × 273.15) / 333.15

P2 = 0.385atm

The final pressure is 0.385atm
