If Jane Doe has a blood carbon dioxide concentration of 0.022 mol/L, how many carbon dioxide molecules are in each liter of her blood? A) 3.7 × 10^-26 B) 0.022 C) 1.32 × 10²² D) 6.02 × 10²³ E) 2.7 × 10²⁵

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the number of carbon dioxide molecules in each liter of blood with a concentration of 0.022 mol/L, we use Avogadro's number (6.02 × 10^23 molecules/mol). Multiplying the concentration by Avogadro's number gives the total number of molecules: 0.022 mol/L × 6.02 × 10^23 molecules/mol = 1.32 × 10^22 molecules/L.
