Long-term space missions require reclamation of the oxygen in the carbon dioxide exhaled by the crew. In one method of oxygen, with 1.00 mol of methane as a by-product. The methane is stored in a tank under pressure and is available to control the attitude of the spacecraft by controlled venting. A single astronaut exhales 1.25 kg of carbon dioxide each day. If the methane generated in the recycling of three astronauts' respiration during one week of flight is stored in an originally empty 160-L tank at -45.0°C, what is the final pressure in the tank? MPa

When limestone (solid CaCO,) is heated, it decomposes into lime (solid CaO) and carbon dioxide gas. This is an extremely useful industrial process of great antiquity, because powdered lime mixed with water is the basis for mortar and concrete- the lime absorbs CO₂ from the air and turns back into hard, durable limestone. Suppose some calcium carbonate is sealed into a limekiln of volume 500. L. and heated to 520.0 °C. When the amount of CaCO, has stopped changing, it is found that 3.84 kg have disappeared. Calculate the pressure equilibrium constant K, this experiment suggests for the equilibrium between CaCO, and CaO at 520.0 °C. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. Note for advanced students: it's possible there was some error in this experiment, and the value it suggests for K, does not match the accepted value.

The nitrogen content of organic compounds can be determined by the Dumas method.The compound in question is first passed over hot CuO(s): Compound N2(g) + CO2(g) + H2O(g) The gaseous products are then passed through a concentrated aqueous KOH solution to remove the CO2.The remaining gas contains N2 and water vapor.A 0.127-g sample of a compound was treated as above, producing 89.0 mL of N2 saturated with water vapor at 25 °C and 739.3 torr.What is the mass percent of nitrogen in the compound? . The vapor pressure of water at 25 °C is 23.8 torr.

In a biology laboratory, the teacher provided the each student group with two long bones (chicken) without the flesh. Following teacher's guidance, one of the long bone was placed in a beaker containing vinegar (7% acetic acid), a weak acid and let it sit for 3 days at 370 C in an incubator. The other long bone was left in beaker containing distilled water and placed in the same incubator. The students were very curious - on the 4th day, they used gloves and removed the bones from respective jars with utmost care. The teacher asked them to write their observations (what happened) and the explanation (why did it happen) in the lab notebook in view of the structure-function relationship of bone. Assuming we are doing this lab activity. describe the observation in the vinegar treated long bone compared to the control set and explain  what actually happened to justify observation

Freon-12 (CF2Cl2), widely used as a refrigerant and aerosol propellant, is a dangerous airpollutant. In the troposphere, it traps heat 25 times as effectively as CO2, and in thestratosphere, it participates in the breakdown of ozone. Freon-12 is prepared industrially byreaction of gaseous carbon tetrachloride with hydrogen fluoride. Hydrogen chloride gasalso forms. How many grams of carbon tetrachloride are required for the production of16.0 dm3 of Freon-12 at 27°C and 1.20 atm?
