Direction: Analyze the given problem and solve. Make sure that you show you complete and detailed solution (write the given, formula, and box your final answer). 1. People in confined spaces like those of space vehicles are at risk of carbon dioxide intoxication due to build-up of the gas. In a space shuttle, the carbon dioxide expelled by the crew is removed from the air by a reaction within canisters of lithium hydroxide. The reaction is, LiOH + CO₂ → Li₂CO3 + H₂O a. How many moles of LIQH can be used to remove the CO2 gas expelled by each crew if on the average, each exhale about 20.0 mol of CO₂ daily? b. If 2355.0 g of LiOH is left in a canister, is this enough to remove all the CO₂ in a space vehicle if the total amount of CO2 expelled by the astronauts through breathing is 2395.0 g? What does this imply? c. If each contaminant control cartridges contains 750. g of LiOH, how many cartridges must be carried on board the space station assuming that six astronauts can each expel 1.01 kg of CO2 per day? The mission is scheduled to last for 20 days. Direction: Analyze the given problem and solve.
