Is oxygen manmade?
No. Earth's oxygen is provided by plants. Humans need oxygen to live, so we could not have been there before there was oxygen, so we could not have made the oxygen.
How could you increase the concentration of a solution after the saturation point is reached?
With few exceptions, if you increase the temperature of the solvent, you will increase the amount of solute that a solution will hold. So, let's say you have a saturated NaCl solution in water at room temperature. Put the beaker on a hot plate and heat it up, and it will be able to dissolve more salt. Cool it back down and it will become supersaturated (and unstable.)
Does oxygen boil only in liquid state?
no it could be plasma
Why the candle could not burn when gas left in the jar?
to burn, the candle requires oxygen therefore there must of been no oxygen
How could you make a solute more soluble?
Increase the temperature
What could increase the amount of oxygen in the air?
The activity of Earth's biosphere
Why is an increase in size a disadvantage to a dragonfly to get oxygen?
because the more it grows the more oxygen it needs which could risk its life
Why is fire such a danger to oxygen therapy patients?
A spark from a cigarette, electric razor, or other electrical device could easily ignite oxygen-saturated hair or bedclothes around the patient.
What will happen if the oxygen will increase?
what would happen if oxygen increased would probaly not be any more benefcial, because we survive off of oxygen and if it could be beneficial beacuse it could be more pressure in out body and we wouldnt be able to take all of that in.
What is considered a normal blood oxygen saturation level for a non-smoker how can this be affected by smoking and at what range is blood oxygen saturation considered impaired Resources appreciated.?
The Harvard link I've provided explains that blood oxygen saturation levels are normal at 95%-100%. This is what you would expect a healthy adult to be. A smoker who is also a 'healthy' adult could be as low as 90% ( and even that would be a little concerning depending on the person and their specific circumstances) Someone with COPD could be as low as 85%. Anything lower then the above in their specific circumstances and I would consider it very impaired, and likely an emergency situation. The link titled "journal article" explains how hemoglobin molecules that are filled with carbon monoxide molecules (HbCO) result in lower oxygen levels. Carbon monoxide is of course inhaled in cigarette smoke. Hope that helps!
If you have raised CO2 in the body does that mean your oxygen saturations would be lower and work of breathing would increase?
Oxygen is used to metabolize carbohydrates and produces carbon dioxide. In addition an increased rate of respiration will lower carbon dioxide levels while increasing oxygen concentrations to saturation. Despite this they are two independent parameters. If someone were to be at a high altitude they could have almost no C02 in their blood, be breathing rapidly and have low oxygen levels. Similarly carbon monoxide will bind strongly to hemoglobin so that oxygen levels will go down, but since except at very low levels of oxygen, breathing will remain unchanged as CO2 levels, which drive the rate of respiration normally will be unchanged.
What happens to cost inflation when any item of cost increases independently of changes in demand?
Inflation still takes place, you are paying more for a good or service than what the previous cost was. This increase could be due to an increase in labor costs, production costs, materials cost, market saturation exponents or consumer utility.
What is limiting factor?
A limiting factor is the factor that stops a process from proceeding as quickly as it could. A limiting factor sets the overall rate of a process. For example, if you are growing crops, increasing the amount of oxygen would increase the yield. The oxygen would be the limiting factor in this case - if there was more of it, the yield of crops will increase, but if there's a lack of it, the yield of crops can't increase, even if you improve other conditions e.g. increase CO2
If you put 1.2 pounds of a water-soluble powder into a gallon of water would you end up with more than a gallon of solution and if so how much more?
The amount of space between the hydrogen and oxygen atoms and water molecules allows for other substances to 'fill-in'. Depending on the configuration and size of the newly introduced atoms and molecules forming with the hydrogen and oxygen atoms or water molecules, the space taken could be less than what is available so could have no difference in the volume of the original water (saturation level). The weight, on the other hand, would increase, by 1.2 pounds.
How can a doctor use Excel?
They could use it to keep lists of payments made to them by patients. They could use it to keep other details on patients. They could use it for some of the financial data that is needed to run their business. They could use it to keep track of amounts of pills they use or doses for things they administer to their patients. They could keep track of the amount of patients they deal with. They could keep track of the amount of times certain illnesses are occurring. There are many other ways they could use a spreadsheet.
Is oxygen manmade?
No. Earth's oxygen is provided by plants. Humans need oxygen to live, so we could not have been there before there was oxygen, so we could not have made the oxygen.
What it means hemoglobin saturation is not liner?
Do you mean Linear? It can mean a few things but basically the distribution of hemoglobin, the cells in blood that transport oxygen, is inconsistent. There could be a blood disorder or some type of disease. It could be cancer or sickle cell anemia. Only a doctor can diagnose the cause through some simple blood tests.
