Why oxygen soluble in water?
Oxygen is only very slightly soluble in water. Water in contact with air has about 8 mg of O2/L dissolved in it. So I would not agree that oxygen is particularly soluble in water at all.
Is 92.8 the correct amount of oxygen found in water?
No, oxygen is not that soluble. Water contains less 1%. However, the composition of water H2O would mean with the atomic mass of hydrogen =1, oxygen = 16 and water 18 that oxygen = 16/18 = 88.9% oxygen.
What problems might there be if oxygen was very soluble in water?
If oxygen was very soluble in water, it could lead to oxygen depletion in aquatic environments as oxygen would be absorbed rapidly by the water, potentially causing harm to marine life due to lack of oxygen. Additionally, the presence of excess oxygen in water could alter the balance of ecosystems by favoring certain species over others.
Why carbon dioxide can not mix in blood?
Carbon dioxide is highly soluble in water and blood plasma. 900 ml/ liter carbon dioxide is soluble in water as against 4 ml/ liter of Oxygen. So this question would have been about oxygen instead of carbon dioxide.
Is water soluble in mucin?
I would say backwards, mucin is soluble in water.
What would provide no water soluble or fat-soluble vitamins?
nitro
Is CsF soluble in water?
No, it is non-polar so it would not be soluble
Is sugar souble or insoluble in water?
Sugar is soluble in water, meaning it can dissolve in water to form a homogeneous solution.
Is B6 fat-soluble?
B6 is water soluble not fat soluble. if you would look at a Lewis structure for it, you would find that it has multiple hydrogen bonds (OH) which makes it a water soluble. a fat soluble would be a non polar molecule containing hydrocarbon chains (CH3)
What would happen if oxygen mixed with water?
Oxygen IS soluble in water... how else do you think the fishes are breathing? Edit: This is the correct answer. Oxygen has poor solubility in water. When you bubble the gas through water, it will exit water unchanged in form. Fishes do not literally "breathe" underwater. The sea is rich in oxygen, when the fishes open their mouth, sea water rushes in. The gills will then open when the mouth closes. When sea water exits from the fish's gill, oxygen is absorbed into the bloodstream via OSMOSIS by the blood vessels.
Why doesnt oxygen dissolve in water?
Oxygen can dissolve in water, but its solubility is relatively low compared to other gases like carbon dioxide. The solubility of oxygen in water is affected by factors such as temperature, pressure, and the presence of other dissolved substances. Additionally, oxygen molecules are nonpolar, which can make it less likely to interact with the polar water molecules.
Would a molecule with polar covalent bonds be soluble in water?
Yes, in chemistry polar molecules are soluble with other polar molecules. You know that water is polar because of it's structure. Two hydrogens are bonded the an oxygen. The oxygen has two lone pairs of electrons that cause the molecule to have a bent VSEPR structure. This creates a net dipole due to the high electronegativity of oxygen. Essentially, the oxygen is slightly negative and the hydrogens slightly positive. So, yes your polar molecule is soluble with water (also polar).
