The average concentration of Carbon Monoxide in a city's air in 2006 was 4.5 ppm. The average atmospheric pressure of the city is 754 Torr.
(a) Calculate the partial pressure of CO.
(b) Calculate the number of CO molecules in 1.0L of this air at a temperature of 25°C
A) partial pressure of CO = mole fraction× total pressure
Partial pressure = 4.5×10-6×754 => 3.39×10-4 torr
B) n = 1×3.39×10-4/0.0821×298×760
n = 1.82×10-8 mol
Numner of molecules = 1.10×10-16

The estimated average concentration of NO2 in the air in theUS in 2006 was 0.016 ppm. (a) Calculate the partial pressure of the NO2 in a sample of this air when the atmospheric pressure is 755 torr (99.1kPa). (b) How many molecules of NO2 are present under these conditions at 20 C in a room that measures 15 x 14 x 8 ft? Please go in detail with question B. I'm not sure how to incorporate room measurements, Thanks!
One hour carbon monoxide concentrations in the air samples from a large city average 13 ppm with a standard deviation of 9 ppm. Assume that the carbon monoxide concentrations are normally distributed. Seattle Washington wants to improve the city's carbon footprint by the year 2020. Based off the national results, what does Seattle's carbon monoxide concentration need to be if they want to be in the bottom 10%?
Based on the “National Ambient Air Quality Objectives”, the acceptable hourly average concentration of carbon monoxide (CO) is 35 mg/m3 . Find the acceptable concentration of CO in ppm if the temperature is -30oC and pressure is 0.92 atm. Express the concentration as a percent by volume.
The concentration of carbon monoxide in a trench is found to be 0.037 g/m3 a. What is this concentration in mg/m3 ? b. How does this concentration compare to the TLV of 25 ppm, assuming an ambient temperature of 77°F (25°C) and pressure of 760 torr (760 mm Hg). c. What would the concentration (ppm) be at an ambient temperature of 32°F (0°C) and pressure of 760 torr (760 mm Hg).
1. Carbon monoxide poisoning can happen because carbon monoxide has a higher affinity for hemoglobin than oxygen does. This can be seen by comparing the equilibrium constants for the two reactions Hb(a)+02()Hb02(aq) Hb(a)C(e) HbCO(aq) K 1.9x1012 K 1.1x1014 where Hb is hemoglobin. The actual reactions are more complicated since each hemoglobin can accept up to four oxygen molecules, but we will simplify it for this problem A concentration of about 12,500 parts per million of CO is considered highly lethal....
There is an average concentration of ethane of 2.51 ppb in the atmosphere. If the air temperature is 21.7°C and atmospheric pressure is 0.987 atm, express this concentration in units of a) ppm b) atm c) molecules/cm3 d) μg/m3 e) Determine the total mass of ethane in the atmosphere in grams with an appropriate prefix
1b. In some countries, the limit for the average concentration of carbon monoxide (CO) in an 8-hour period is set at 9 ppm. Express this amount as a percentage.
QUESTION 12 The concentration of carbon monoxide (CO) in cigarette smoke reaches 400 ppm. For this particular value determine the concentration in milligrams per cubic meters, at 25 0c and 1 atm. 0 4.57 mg/m O 457 mg/m3 O 4057 mg/m3 45.7 mg/m3
16) The concentration of carbon monoxide is 5.5 g/m3. Convert this to ppmy at temperature of 30 °C and pressure of 700 mm Hg. (7 points) 17)Determine the density of air at 75 °F and 14.7 psia. The molecular weight of air is 29 g/gmole? (6 points)
Exhaust gas emitted by a particular automobile contains 20 g of carbon monoxide (CO) for every km driven. If this car is driven 30 km, how much carbon monoxide will have been emitted, and what would be the volume of the carbon monoxide after it cools to 25°C at a pressure of 1 atm? Assume carbon monoxide (and the atmosphere) acts as an ideal gas. Per km of travel, what volume of air could be polluted by the carbon monoxide...
