Every day, you breathe nitrogen and oxygen along with many other gases. Helium is inert and poses no threat at all except if you breathe only helium and you deprive yourself of oxygen. In theory, any gas can be breathed in small concentrations since the concentration is what determines hazardous effects. Even Oxygen can kill you if it is in too high of a concentration.

What conditions would cause a real gas to best simulate an ideal gas?

A gas with: low pressure, low concentration, low temperature.


What is the movement of liquid or gas particles from a high to a low concentration?

Diffusion is the movement of liquid or gas particles from a high to a low concentration. This process occurs in an attempt to reach equilibrium, where the concentration of particles is the same throughout the system.


What are Low hazardous products classified as?

Low hazardous products are classified as Low danger.


How do gases spread out from a area of high and low concentration?

The gas molecules move about randomly.


The concentration on of gas in a liquid is directly proportional to its partial pressure in the gas phase above the liquid is known as -------- low?

No answer


When molecules move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration they move with the?

When molecules move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, they move with the concentration gradient. This movement is known as passive transport and does not require the input of energy.


Can you buy ultra low sulferdiesel fuel in Mexico?

No. Mexican gas and diesel have a large concentration of sulfur.


Diffusion is the movement of what substance?

Diffusion is the movement of substances from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, resulting in a more uniform distribution.


How does gas move things?

by diffusion, from a low concentration to a high concentration of the molecule involved. so that the concentrations across the area are all equal, and an equilibrium is reached.


What condition exists when you have a high concentration of molecules in one place and a low concentration in an adjacent place?

A concentration gradient exists, which drives the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration through processes like diffusion or osmosis. This gradient is essential for processes like nutrient uptake by cells or gas exchange in the lungs.


When molecules move down the concentration gradient it means they are moving from high to low or low to high?

When molecules move down the concentration gradient, they are moving from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. This movement occurs spontaneously to equalize the concentration of molecules in the given environment.


What is a limitation of using your senses to determine the presence of a hazardous material?

A limitation of using your senses to determine the presence of a hazardous material is that some hazardous materials are hazardous at concentrations too low for your senses to detect. In addition, some materials are very apparent to your senses at concentrations that are very small fractions of the concentration at which they become hazardous. If you are close enough to sense hazardous materials, you may have already endangered yourself.
