Textbook Question
Chapter 12, Problem 12.36QP
A miner working 260 m below sea level opened a carbonated soft drink during a lunch break. To his surprise, the soft drink tasted rather “flat.” Shortly afterward, the miner took an elevator to the surface. During the trip up, he could not stop belching. Why?

Imagine carbon dioxide (CO2) gas is generated by reacting aqueous sodium bicarbonate with aqueous acetic acid. As the gas bubbles from the surface of the solution, the gas is trapped by a large test tube which was turned upside down and the end submerged below the level of the solution. When you analyze the gas trapped in the tube, you find that it contains not only carbon dioxide but water as well.
(i) Explain why water vapor is present in the gas sample in the tube. As part of your explanation, be sure to
(ii) include an appropriate, labeled diagram.

(a) What volume of gas is this at standard temperature and pressure?

- No Plagiarism Please! Use the paragraph to complete Divers who go to great depths in the ocean experience large differences in pressure between the surface and their final destinations below the surface. At times, they have to avoid quick changes in pressure because of the effects on the solubility of nitrogen in their blood. If the solubility decreases quickly, then gas bubbles can form in the person’s blood, causing a dangerous condition called “the bends.” In one or two sentences, state whether you would expect the condition to be a greater hazard for divers as they dive down or as they return to the surface. Then, explain your prediction in terms of the solubility of gases in liquids at different pressures.arrow_forwardAn aqueous solution of sodium iodide (NaI) has a molality of 0.150 mol·kg–1 at 18°C. a) Convert this concentration to molarity.
