The air at the top of the mountain is less dense, meaning there are less particles of oxygen in a certain are than on the ground. It is harder to breathe because the air is so thin, there is not enough oxygen to breathe normally until you get used to it.
The intense heat of the burner alters the atomic nucleus of the oxygen atom into a synthetic helium atom causing the balloon to rise. The helium atom is less dense than the original oxygen atom.
When you breathe in, you take in oxygen and when you breathe out, you release carbon dioxide. Most of the air you breathe out is composed of nitrogen and oxygen with a slightly higher concentration of carbon dioxide than in the atmosphere. The oxygen you inhale is used by your cells for energy production, while the carbon dioxide is a waste product that is released back into the air.
It is filled with air, as prolonged exposure to pure oxygen is harmful to humans.
No, it is greater at the lower elevations.
Inhaled air has more oxygen compared to exhaled air. When we inhale, we take in fresh oxygen from the environment to use for cellular respiration. As we exhale, we release carbon dioxide and the remaining oxygen that was not used by the body.
Iron reacts with oxygen in air to for rust.
A nail will rust faster in damp air because moisture accelerates the corrosion process by providing the water and oxygen needed for rusting to occur. Dry air slows down the rusting process by limiting the availability of water and oxygen.
The oxygen content of air in deserts is not necessarily higher than in other regions. However, deserts can experience high temperatures and low humidity, which can make it feel like the air is richer in oxygen when, in fact, it is the dryness and heat that are creating this sensation.
Damp air is generally heavier than dry air because the water vapor molecules in damp air add to its overall weight. This is why humidity often makes the air feel heavier and more difficult to breathe in.
The air that enters the lungs is richer in oxygen when it enters the lungs. when it leaves it has more carbon dioxide and less oxygen as the lungs expel carbon dioxde and some unused oxygen.
The mass of iron can increase when left in damp air for a few days due to the formation of rust (iron oxide) on its surface. Rust is a combination of iron, oxygen, and water, which adds to the overall mass of the iron object.
A noun for damp, stale air is must or mustiness; the adjectives are musty or dank.
Blackdamp is another term for choke damp - an asphyxiant found in enclosed places such as mines and sewers after oxygen has been removed from the air.
no
Oxygen gas diffuses faster than air because oxygen molecules are smaller and lighter than the molecules of air, which is mostly composed of nitrogen and oxygen. This allows oxygen molecules to move more quickly through a medium, such as air or other gases.
Stythe gas is an asphyxiant that reduces the available oxygen content of air to where animals or humans can not survive in it. It is also called Black damp.
