Squamous epithelial cells are flat and are usually found lining surfaces that require a smooth flow of fluid such as your blood vessels, or lining areas that require a very thin surface for molecules to pass through, such as the air sacs in your lungs.

The squamous cell epithelium forms a barrier between the body and the exterior environment. The cells also provide protection for the underlying tissues

How many grams of oxygen gas are there in a 2.3L tank at 7.5 atm and 24° C?

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

22.656 grams of oxygen gas are there in a 2.3L tank at 7.5 atm and 24° C

Explanation:

An ideal gas is characterized by three state variables: absolute pressure (P), volume (V), and absolute temperature (T). The relationship between them constitutes the ideal gas law:

P * V = n * R * T

where R is the molar constant of the gases and n the number of moles.

In this case you know:

P= 7.5 atm
V= 2.3 L
n= ?

R= 0.082 $\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}$

T= 24 °C= 297 °K (being 0°C=273°K)

Replacing:

$7.5 atm* 2.3 L=n*0.082 \frac{atm*L}{mol*K} *297K$

Solving:

$n=\frac{7.5 atm* 2.3 L}{0.082 \frac{atm*L}{mol*K} *297K}$

n=0.708 moles

Knowing that oxygen gas is a diatomic gas of molecular form O₂ and its mass is 32 g / mole, you can apply the following rule of three: if 1 mole contains 32 grams, 0.708 moles, how much mass will it have?

$mass=\frac{0.708 moles*32 grams}{1mole}$
