What is the difference between the air you inhale than the air you exhale?

the difference between inhale and exhale is when you inhale you get more oxygenthan you exhale


What is the name of water that is a gas?

Steam. Not to be confused with vapor, which is a suspension of liquid water molecules in another gas.


Why does blood turn acidic if we don't exhale carbon dioxide?

Carbon dioxide is an acidic oxide. It's a gas that, if it's dissolved in liquids (such as water and also blood) makes that liquid acidic. The more carbon dioxide is dissolved in the liquid the more acidic it gets. So if you don't exhale carbon dioxide but still inhale it the blood turns acidic. This is what happens when you hyperventilate. More carbon dioxide is absorbed during inhalation than is emitted during exhalation. This is a simplified explanation so please don't quote me in academic circles.


Does TNT become more or less sensitive with age?

If you leave TNT too long with contact to water/water vapour, it will begin to lose flamability


To condense is a physical or chemical change?

Condensation can be a physical process whereby a vapour becomes a liquid e.g. the 'steam' (water vapour) from your shower condenses on the bathroom window and runs down as water to form a puddle on the windowsill. Warm air can hold more water than cold air - the warm, vapour-laden air is cooled as it comes in contact with the colder glass and can hold less vapour so the surplus appears as water on the glass. In chemistry there are 'condensation reactions'

Why humans exhale more water vapour than they inspire?

Humans exhale more water vapour than they inhale because water vapour is a product of respiration which means that your body creates it so has more to get rid of.


Which two gases are which you exhale more than inhale?

Carbon dioxide and water vapour.


Why exhaled air has more water vapour?

No. The exhaled air contents more water vapour. The exhaled air is almost saturated with water vapour.

What is occurring when you can see your breath on cold days?

The air that you exhale contains water vapour. When you exhale during a cold day, the relative humidity increases. Relative humidity is actually the percentage of the amount of water vapour in the air.(the maximum amount of water vapour that the air can hold at that temperature) The colder the air, the less water vapour it can carry. When exhaled, air mixes with cold air, the temperature of the exhaled air drops, but there is more water vapour. When the air becomes saturated, (relative humidity is 100%), the extra water vapour will condense, allowing you to see your breathe on cold days.


How do you use an inspirometer?

inhale slowly through the hose then exhale, DO NOT force yourself to inhale more than your lungs are comfortable with, its a lot like smoking except you exhale immediately like a breath


Do you breathe in or breathe out more water vapour?

You breathe out more water vapour then when you breathe in

Why is there less oxygen in exhaled air then inhaled?

You breathe air for the oxygen and hydrogen, when you inhale chemical changes begin and you take in the oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide which things like plants then use to make more oxygen. You are not exhaling the same compound.


What is recyclable reasources?

trees- we can plant more air- we breathe out Carbon dioxide while plants breathe it in. We inhale oxygen while plants exhale it. water- It sounds gross, but quite frankly we can filter pee into drinking water.


What cause the difference in the amount of air you inhale and exhale?

Lungs alveoli has very large surface area, about 100 square meters. So air is fully saturated with water vapor and so it is more in amount.


What does the contraction of the diaphragm cause?

It allows you to breath or more precisely exhale. When the muscle is relaxed your lungs expand and you inhale.
