- 5-111 Diving, particularly SCUBA (Self-Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus) diving, subjects the body to increased pressure. Each 10. m (approximately 33 ft) of water exerts an additional pressure of 1 atm on the body. (a) What is the pressure on the body at a depth of 100. ft? (b) The partial pressure of nitrogen gas in air at 1 atm is 593 mm Hg. Assuming a SCUBA diver breathes compressed air, what is the partial pressure of nitrogen entering the lungs from a breathing tank at a depth of 100. ft? (c) The partial pressure of oxygen gas in the air at 2 atm is 158 mm Hg. What is the partial pressure of oxygen in the air in the lungs at a depth of 100. ft? (d) Why is it absolutely essential to exhale vigorously in a rapid ascent from a depth of 100. ft?arrow_forward5-107 If 60.0 g of NH3 occupies 35.1 L under a pressure of 77.2 in. Hg, what is the temperature of the gas, in °C?arrow_forwardYou have two pressure-proof steel cylinders of equal volume, one containing 1.0 kg of CO and the other containing 1.0 kg of acetylene, C2H2. (a) In which cylinder is the pressure greater at 25 C? (b) Which cylinder contains the greater number of molecules?arrow_forward
- A 0.3 L vessel contains 20 mmol of methane gas at 30 °C. What is the calculated pressure of the gas, using the ideal-gas equation (PV = nRT)? [R = 8.314 L kPa mol–1 K–1. Enter your answer as a numerical value in units of kPa.]arrow_forward1) A gas mixture at 20.0°C and 2.0 atm contains 0.40 mol of H2, 0.15 mol of O2, and 0.50 mol of N2. Assuming ideal behavior, what is the partial pressure of hydrogen gas (H2) in the mixture?arrow_forward10. (a) Calculate the amount of gas present in a 500 mL container at 27°C and 1.7 atm of pressure.
