There would literally be no air as there would be no space for it to occupy. If you compress air sufficiently it will liquify, but stilll occupy a discrete volumes.

Would air ever have zero volume at absolute zero?

No, at absolute zero there would still be some volume occupied by the air molecules. Although the volume would decrease as temperature approaches absolute zero, it never reaches zero due to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, which states that we can never know both the exact position and momentum of a particle simultaneously.


Does gas particles have volume?

According to the ideal gas law, the volume of individual gas particles is assumed to be zero. Of course, this isn't possible; all matter has volume. However, if we assume they have zero volume (along with collisions which are 100% elastic and statistically random motion) it makes the math a lot easier.


What is the volume of air that cannot undergo gas exchange?

The volume of air that cannot undergo gas exchange is known as dead space. It consists of the air in the conducting airways (trachea, bronchi, bronchioles) where gas exchange does not occur because it does not reach the alveoli where oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange takes place.


If air is 20.9 percent oxygen by volume what is the volume of air that contains 225 ml of oxygen?

Divide 225ml by 20.9, then multiply by 100.


How do you get alveolar ventilation rate?

To calculate alveolar ventilation rate, you need to multiply the tidal volume (the amount of air moved in and out of the lungs during normal breathing) by the respiratory rate (number of breaths per minute), and then subtract the dead space volume (the portion of inspired air that does not reach the alveoli). This gives you the amount of fresh air reaching the alveoli per minute.

Can air be compressed completely in a sealed plunge?

No, air cannot be compressed completely in a sealed plunger due to the limitations of Boyle's Law. As pressure increases, volume decreases, but it will never reach zero volume. Some air molecules will always remain in the sealed plunger.


How many particles are in a square inch of air?

None. A square inch or air is a measure of area. It has no height at all and so, the volume is zero. A volume of zero cannot contain any particles.

What is the example of Zero velocity but non zero accelerator?

Throwing a ball straight up in the air. It will reach some peak where the velocity is zero, but the acceleration due to gravity is a constant -9.8m/s^2.

What percent percentage of fresh air is inspired with each breath in normal individuals at rest does not reach the alveoli?

About 30%. The air trapped in ANATOMICAL DEAD SPACE which is about 150 ml does not reach into the alveoli in each breath of 500ml (TIDAL VOLUME)approx.


What happens to air before it gets close to absolute zero that would prevent an accurate determination of absolute zero?

As air cools, it condenses into liquid form, making it difficult to accurately measure the temperature of the gas mixture. This can affect the determination of absolute zero because the liquid phase of air introduces additional complexities in measuring properties such as volume and pressure which are used to calculate temperature.


Does a cubic meter of air have less mass higher up?

Yes. The density of the air (and thus mass per unit volume) deceases all the way to zero (in space) as the altitude increases.
