- A rebreathing gas mask contains potassium superoxide, KO2, which reacts with moisture in the breath to give oxygen. 4KO2(s)+2H2O(l)4KOH(s)+3O2(g) Estimate the grams of potassium superoxide required to supply a persons oxygen needs for one hour. Assume a person requires 1.00 102 kcal of energy for this time period. Further assume that this energy can be equated to the heat of combustion of a quantity of glucose, C6H12O6, to CO2(g) and H2O(l). From the amount of glucose required to give 1.00 102 kcal of heat, calculate the amount of oxygen consumed and hence the amount of KO2 required. The ff0 for glucose(s) is 1273 kJ/mol.arrow_forwardThe equation for the fermentation of glucose to alcohol and carbon dioxide is: C6H12O6(aq) 2C2H5OH(aq) + 2CO2(g) The enthalpy change for the reaction is 67 kJ.

- Thermal Interactions Part 1: In an insulated container, you mix 200. g of water at 80C with 100. g of water at 20C. After mixing, the temperature of the water is 60C. a How much did the temperature of the hot water change? How much did the temperature of the cold water change? Compare the magnitudes (positive values) of these changes. b During the mixing, how did the heat transfer occur: from hot water to cold, or from cold water to hot? c What quantity of heat was transferred from one sample to the other? d How does the quantity of heat transferred to or from the hot-water sample compare with the quantity of heat transferred to or from the cold-water sample? e Knowing these relative quantities of heat, why is the temperature change of the cold water greater than the magnitude of the temperature change of the hot water. f A sample of hot water is mixed with a sample of cold water that has twice its mass. Predict the temperature change of each of the samples. g You mix two samples of water, and one increases by 20C, while the other drops by 60C. Which of the samples has less mass?
