Is oxygen a solvent or solution?
Oxygen is a solvent and if you want to know what a helium is then it is a solute.
What would be formed at the cathode and the anode during the electrolysis of sodium hydroxide solution?
Hydrogen gas would evolve from the cathode and oxygen gas would evolve from the anode.
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.
Can 78 percent of nitrogen and 21 percent oxygen be a solution?
The simple answer to your question is "maybe." Solutions are defined as a homogenous (uniform) mixture of 2 or more substances. In a solution, a solute is dissolved into another substance known as the solvent. When referring to a solution in chemistry, one is often referring to a mixture of 2 or more liquids, however solutions may be composed of mixtures of a solid, gas or liquid. In cases of liquid and solid solvents, another substance (the solute) in a gas, liquid or solid phase may be dissolved into the solvent to make a solution. Solutions of gases can only be made with mixtures of substances in the gas phase. 78% nitrogen gas and 21% oxygen gas may be considered a solution if these 2 gases are homogenously mixed with another gas (or gases) that make up the remaining 1%. The mixture of 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen refers to the composition of the atmosphere of Earth or air. In reality air is not considered a solution as it contains many impurities which make it a heterogenous mixture.
What is the reaction of copper and ammonium hydroxide and hydrogen peroxide?
In the presence of ammonia and copper, hydrogen peroxide will decompose, liberating oxygen gas. The oxygen gas dissolves in the solution and oxidizes copper to copper (2+). Then the ammonia reacts with the Cu2+ forming a complex with deep blue color.
What type of gas is pumped into your blood?
oxygen
Can a lot of oxygen gas be pumped into a very small container and why?
Yes, it is a gas
Why can a lot of oxygen gas be pumped into a very small container?
Yes, it is a gas
What gas is pumped in racing car tires?
Nitrogen and oxygen = Air
Is air a solution of oxygen gas dissolved in nitrogen gas?
yes
What is an example of a gas gas solution?
Air. (Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide)
Which gas is pumped into a balloon?
Helium gas is pumped into a balloon.
Does a mixture of nitrogen oxygen and argon are a solution?
Such a gas-gas mixture is, technically, a solution but most people do not use that term to describe it.
In the lungs oxygen from air enters what?
Oxygen in the lungs and passes through the alveoli, small sacs which allow gas exchange, and enters the blood to be pumped throughout the body.
What is an example of a solution made of a gas dissolved in a gas?
The atmosphere, which is a solution of nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide and several other gases in very low proportions.
Is doederant a gas liqid or solid?
It would be a gas because it is a flammable solution, but as soon as it reacts with oxygen becomes a liquid.
What is the product of methanol and oxygen?
Methanol absorbs a minor quantity of oxygen gas and forms a homogeneous solution.
