Which property explains why a lot of oxygen can be pumped into a very small container?
Yes as the oxygen (gas) can be compressed into the very small container which is a property.
How will you justify water is a compound?
By burning/combusting hydrogen gas in oxygen. The product is water. Or, by using 'H' electrolysis apparatus to break down water into its component gases. The one 'upright of the 'H' contains the hydrogen to a height. The other 'upright' contains the oxygen to half the height of the hydrogen 'upright'. This indicates that there is twice as much hydrogen as oxygen in water. Hence its compound formula is H2O.
What is the unstable form of oxygen?
Oxygen has six valence electrons, which means that it needs to gain two to become stable. it takes much more energy for oxygen to lose its 6 valence electrons than it would be to gain 2. When atoms form compounds, they become stable.
How much is your compound bow worth?
how much is my pse catalyst pro series compound bow worth
Chemical symbol CO3?
The symbol "CO3" stands for the chemical compound Carbon Trioxide. C stands for Carbon O stands for oxygen 3 represents how much oxygen there is (if the 3 was in between the "C" and "O" then it would represent the amount of carbon)
How much oxygen is in your body?
65% of our bodies is made up of oxygen.
What body compound would have much of the hydrogen and oxygen?
In chemistry
Why do you yawn so much?
we yawns o much because of lack of oxygen in our bodies. If you are sititng in class for example, and you yawn, its not becasue you are tired, it is becasue you donthave much oxygen in your body . :)
The type of compound that contains much more carbon and hydrogen than oxygen is?
Lipid
Which gas law explains why there is much carbon dioxide exchanged between alveoli as there is oxygen exchanged?
diffusion
Which compound is formed when carbon burns in oxygen?
The major product of Carbon burning in Oxygen is Carbon Dioxide (CO2), but some Carbon Monoxide (CO) can be formed depending how much Oxygen is present.
The type of compound that contains much more carbon and hydrogen than oxygen?
One such type is hydrocarbons, which contain only hydrogen and carbon with no oxygen at all.
Is water a common compound on earth?
Yes, water is a very common compound on earth. It makes up the oceans, lakes, rivers, much of the bodies of living things, etc.
Why is compound lighter than a element?
A compound is not lighter than an element, if that element is part of the compound. Some compounds, like H2O would be lighter than, say, the element lead, but it is not lighter than the elements that make it up, i.e. hydgrogen and/or oxygen.
What is compound is formed when a metal reacts with oxygen?
It depends on which metal you are using?Iron + Oxygen = Iron OxideMagnesium + Oxygen = Magnesium OxideAluminium + Oxygen = Aluminium OxideSee, just add the metal name in front of "OXIDE"I hope this answer has been of much use.
Does too much oxygen cause confusion in the elderly?
Too much oxygen can confuse anyone. Our bodies are adapted to atmospheric levels of oxygen, which is about 21% of the air we breathe. Oxygen from inside of one of those pressurized canisters is usually present in much higher concentrations, generally speaking it is usually pure oxygen. So yes, elderly people who are on oxygen can experience some side effects, including headaches, increased sleepiness, and confusion. If any of these seem to be an issue, its is important to contact your physician, as the flow rate or concentration of the oxygen may need to be adjusted.
Why do athletes need a good supply of oxygen while carrying out training?
Athletes need a good supply of oxygen in their blood systems to perform at their highest potential. The more oxygen in the blood stream, the more oxygen is available to be transferred to each cells' mitochondria. The mitochondria produces the energy that a cell needs to perform at its best. So, the more oxygen there is in the blood, the better an athlete will perform. This is why athletes train at high altitudes without much oxygen - so their bodies produce more naturally. Then, when they compete at lower altitudes, their bodies have extra oxygen and thus, they are able to perform better.
