Interpretation:
The amount of moles
Concept Introduction:
The Mole and
•For convenience in considering reactions and calculating quantities, chemists think in terms of moles of substances.
•A mole is a quantity of particles defined as Avogadro’s number of particles or formula units of elements or compounds.
•The molecular or formula weight of a compound is the sum of the mass of all atoms in the formula.
•A mole also happens to be 22.4 L of an ideal gas under standard conditions, so 22.4 L of ideal gas represent one gram formula weight of the compound.

An adult takes about 12 breaths per minute, inhaling roughly 500 mL of air with each breath. The molar compositions of the inspired and expired gases are as follows: Species Inspired Gas (%) Expired Gas (%)O2 20.6 15.1CO2 0.0 3.7N2 77.4 75.0H2O 2.0 6.2The inspired gas is at 24°C and 1 atm, and the expired gas is at body temperature and pressure (37°C and 1 atm). Nitrogen is not transported into or out of the blood in the lungs. All nitrogen inhaled is exhaled. 1. Calculate the masses of O2, CO2, and H2O transferred from the pulmonary gases to the blood or vice versa (specify which) per minute. 2. Calculate the volume of air exhaled per milliliter inhaled. 3. At what rate (g/min) is this individual losing weight by merely breathing?
Heliox is a helium‑oxygen mixture that may be used in scuba tanks for divers working at great depths. It is also used medically as a breathing treatment.
A 5.25 L tank holds helium gas at a pressure of 1734 psi. A second 5.25 L tank holds oxygen at a pressure of 461.0 psi. The two gases are mixed in a 5.25 L tank. If the temperature remains the same throughout the process, what is the pressure of the gas mixture in the tank? Assume ideal gas behavior.
