Assume a certain adult requires 27 102 ml of pure oxygen


1) Assume a certain adult requires 2.7 × 102 mL of pure oxygen per minute and assume inhaled air contains 20.0 percent oxygen by volume and exhaled air is 16.0 percent. (Also, assume that the volume of inhaled air is equal to that of the exhaled air.) If the person breathes 12.0 times every minute, what is the volume of air per breath?

2)A piece of metal weighing 255.5 g is placed in a graduated cylinder containing 227.6 mL of water. The volume of water now reads 259.5 mL. From these data calculate the density of the metal.

3)The following procedure was used to determine the volume of a flask. The flask was weighed dry and then filled with water. If the masses of the empty flask and filled flask were 45.83 g and 99.49 g, respectively, and the density of water is 0.9976 g/cm3, calculate the volume of the flask in cm3.

4)A graduated cylinder is filled to the 40.00-mL mark with a mineral oil. The masses of the cylinder before and after the addition of the mineral oil are 124.966 g and 159.446 g, respectively. In a separate experiment, a metal ball bearing of mass 18.758 g is placed in the cylinder and the cylinder is again filled to the 40.00-mL mark with the mineral oil. The combined mass of the ball bearing and mineral oil is 50.952 g. Calculate the density and radius of the ball bearing (volume of a sphere of radius r is 4/3πr3)

5)Bronze is an alloy made of copper (Cu) and tin (Sn). Calculate the mass of a bronze cylinder of radius 6.41 cm and length 53.19 cm. The composition of the bronze is 79.42 percent Cu and 20.58 percent Sn and the densities of Cu and Sn are 8.94 g/cm3 and 7.31 g/cm3, respectively. What assumption should you make in this calculation? Enter your answer in scientific notation.
