At what rate would oxygen concentration in the gas within the international space station decrease if the system for the electrolytic generation of oxygen failed? Give your answer as mole fraction per day. How many days would it take after the failure for the oxygen in the ISS to fall to 15% assuming it starts at 21%?

Children’s toys and jewelry were assessed for their contamination by potentially toxic elements (PTE). This includes traces of As (74.92 g/mol), Cd (112.4 g/mol), Pb (207.2 g/mol), and Zn (65.39 g/mol) among others. The concentrations of these PTEs were determined to characterize the subsequent health risks, and to possibly reinforce better legislation on the manufacturing of these products.
