Explanation Given data: The amount of air inhaled with every breath is 0.50 L . Formula Used: The expression for the volume of oxygen in the air inhaled per breath is given by: V oxygen = ( % of Oxygen ) ( Volume of air/breath ) Here, V Oxygen represents the volume of oxygen inhaled in every breath. The expression for the mass of oxygen inhaled in every breath is given by: M oxygen = ρ V oxygen Here, M oxygen represents the mass of oxygen and ρ represents the density of the air. The expression for the number of oxygen molecules inhaled in one breath can be given as: N = M oxygen m o Here, N represents the number of oxygen molecules inhaled in one breath and m o represents the mass of one oxygen molecule. Explanation: Consider the percentage of volume of oxygen in one molecule of air to be 21 % . The expression for the volume of oxygen inhaled in every breath can be written as: V oxygen = ( % of Oxygen ) ( Volume of air/breath ) Substitute 21 100 for ( % of Oxygen ) and 0.50 L for ( Volume of air/breath ) . V oxygen = ( 21 100 ) ( 0.50 L ) = 0.105 L The mass of oxygen for the volume of 0.105 L molecules can be expressed as: M oxygen = ρ V oxygen Since air is at the sea-level, the density of the air is considered to be 1

Kinetic Theory of Gas

The Kinetic Theory of gases is a classical model of gases, according to which gases are composed of molecules/particles that are in random motion. While undergoing this random motion, kinetic energy in molecules can assume random velocity across all dire…

Did your experiment results in Data Table 3 verify, to within a reasonable experimental error, the condition of equilibrium of Equation 6: Στanti-clockwise = Στclockwise? Support your response with experimental data. What does this Σ mean? My results do not show they are equal to each other, what does this mean then, and what does the data show? Thanks!
