The Apollo 13 mission astronauts are running out of oxygen and need to get rid of the excess carbon dioxide. You know that sodium hydroxide can remove carbon dioxide from the spacecraft cabin. The filter which they had been using is fully saturated and no longer works. The astronauts have a 5 kg container of sodium hydroxide on the ship. The reaction to neutralize the air, remove carbon dioxide with sodium hydroxide is shown below CO2(g) + 2NaOH(s) ⟶⟶ Na2CO3(aq) + H2O(l) The astronauts have 2 days left before they land on earth. You know that there are three astronauts, and each astronaut emits roughly 500. g of carbon dioxide each day. Is there enough sodium hydroxide in the cabin to cleanse the cabin air of the carbon dioxide, or are the astronauts doomed? Calculate how much sodium hydroxide is required to remove all the carbon dioxide from the three astronauts. Be sure to show all your work!
