The gas commonly mixed with oxygen for diving is nitrogen. This mixture is called Nitrox or Enriched Air Nitrox, and it helps reduce the risk of decompression sickness when diving at certain depths.
Yes, carbon dioxide and oxygen can be mixed together. In fact, the air we breathe is a mixture of various gases, including carbon dioxide and oxygen. However, the optimal ratio for breathing is about 21% oxygen and less than 1% carbon dioxide.
Air only has about 20% oxygen, almost all of the rest is nitrogen. An oxygen tank has 100% oxygen and is used in some cases for breathing sicknesses. These patients don't need 100% oxygen, but just a bit more that is mixed with normal air when they breath in.
The dot structure for sodium and oxygen mixed would involve transferring one electron from sodium to oxygen, resulting in Na+ and O2-. These ions would then form an ionic bond, creating the compound sodium oxide (Na2O).
When chlorine and oxygen are mixed, they can react to form chlorine dioxide (ClO2), a red to yellow gas with a pungent odor. This reaction is often employed in water treatment and pulp bleaching processes.
When copper is mixed with oxygen, copper oxide is formed. The specific compound formed depends on the ratio of copper to oxygen present during the reaction.
Helium is an inert gas, so it has no effect on the body. Divers use it mixed with oxygen when they dive deeply. The only real danger is breathing in so much that you don't get enough oxygen.
It is a common misconception that humans absorb only oxygen when they breath. While Oxygen is the primary element that our bodies require when breating we can not breath it in pure concentration. Our own atmosphere is a Nitrogen/Oxygen mix that we inhale and require both elements. I'm not sure for the reason or chemistry behind it. However I do know that over time breathing pure oxygen will kill a person. So we need the mixed gas form similar to our atmosphere.
Astronauts use compressed oxygen mixed with nitrogen fo produce their breathing gas.
Yes, carbon dioxide and oxygen can be mixed together. In fact, the air we breathe is a mixture of various gases, including carbon dioxide and oxygen. However, the optimal ratio for breathing is about 21% oxygen and less than 1% carbon dioxide.
By breathing nitrox (gases where the %O2 is higher as compared to air) or mixed gases (e.g. adding in helium) so that the partial pressure of nitrogen is reduced.
If you breath 100% Oxygen, it is not immediately poisonous and can be beneficial for a short time. However the human body has evolved to breath a gas mixture called air. Air is 80% Nitrogen and 20% Oxygen and if you breath a gas mixture significantly richer in Oxygen for a protracted period, then the Oxygen affects the functioning of most body systems and can lead to death. Also breathing Oxygen where the partial pressure of the Oxygen exceeds 1.2 bar, can cause acute oxygen poising resulting in convolutions. SCUBA divers need to take this into account when diving, especially on mixed gasses.
Everyone does, reparation is the process whereby oxygen is turned into glucose and carbon dioxide is released. Do notget it mixed up with breathing.
Hydrogen sulphide explodes when it is mixed with oxygen.
Most very deep dives are done in trimix, which is a mix of oxygen (actually very little of that), helium and nitrogen.For really deep dives, divers use heliox, which is a mix of pure helium and oxygen.And for really stupidly deep dives, divers use hyrdeliox(hydrogen, helium and oxygen).
first of all, its ventilation and it means breathing. but don't get mixed up with respiration and breathing they are different!
