Answer: 4 people can carry safely for one mission.
Explanation: To calculate the number of moles of produces by 1 astronaut, we use the formula:
….(1)
Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol
Given mass of carbon dioxide =
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
We are given a chemical equation:
Moles of LiOH by using equation 1, we get:
Molar mass of LiOH = 24 g/mol
By stoichiometry of the reaction,
2 moles of LiOH produces 1 mole of
So. 1458.3 moles of LiOH will produce = of
Applying Unitary method:
As, 200 moles of are produced by 1 astronaut
So, 729.15 moles of will be produced by =
astronauts.
