The calculated amount of oxygen required to oxidized a compound to its final oxidation products . The organic matter of sewage is mainly composed of carbohydrats , protein, fats,and products of their decomposition . If the chemical formulaeof the organic matter are called as theoretical oxygen demand can be calculatd.

Yes

First write the reaction, get moleculr weight of oxygen and reactant. TOD=(mg/L soln)X(weight of O)/(weight of Reactants)
it is what elasticity of demand
A biological oxygen demand is another term for a biochemical oxygen demand - the amount of oxygen needed by aerobic microorganisms to decompose all the organic matter in a sample of water - used as a measure of pollution.
Oxygen Demand -The amount of oxygen require to oxidize an organic materialBiochemical (Biological) Oxygen Demand (BOD) -The amount of oxygen required to oxidized any organic matter present in the water by microbes present in the water. Usually representin the easily "digestible" organics.Chemical Oxygen Demand (CO) - The amount of oxidants experessed as oxygen required to consume all organics in a water sampleTotal Oxygen Demand (TOD) the sum of COD and BODBiological Oxygen demand is the oxygen required to oxidized only organic matter by micro organisms (it is basically a prototype of actual process happening in treatment plant) while chemical oxygen demand is the oxygen consumed to oxidize all organic and inorganic matter and it employ chemicals to do this process that why it is way more fast then BOD experiment .
The theoretical yield is 56,7 %.
There is a very large demand for chemical oxygen. Chemical oxygen is very sought after because it can be used to determine when water is contaminated with pollutants.

The mean oxygen demand is the test done to indirectly determine the amount of organic compounds present in a water sample.

Water contain 88,88 % oxygen and 11,11 % hydrogen.
Dissolved Oxygen
If the demand for oxygen is not met for a long period of time, the cells within the muscle tissue will die.
