Of the factors that influence diffusion of respiratory gases, the most variable and, therefore, important factor to consider is the
a) membrane thickness.
b) diffusion distance.
c) membrane surface area.
d) electrical charge.
e) concentration gradient.

Aregular polygon has angkes of size 150° each. how many side has the polygon

As part of an industrial process, air as an ideal gas at 10 bar, 400k expands at steady state through a valve to a pressure of 4 bar. the mass flow rate of air is 0.5 kg/s. the air then passes through a heat exchanger where it is cooled to a temperature of 295k with negligible change in pressure. the valve can be modeled as a throttling process, and kinetic and potential energy effects can be neglected. (a) for a control volume enclosing the valve and heat exchanger and enough of the local surroundings that the heat transfer occurs at the ambient temperature of 295 k, determine the rate of entropy production, in kw/k. (b) if the expansion valve were replaced by an adiabatic turbine operating isentropically, what would be the entropy production? compare the results of parts (a) and (b) and discuss.

Urgent pls a. coal consumption levels off and remains flat. b. petroleum, natural gas, and renewables show an increase in consumption c. more nonrenewable resources continued to be consumed than renewable. d. there is little projected increase in nuclear energy use. e. carbon dioxide emissions are projected to decline as we approach 2040. global energy consumption is defined as the total energy used by an individual or organizations from around the world. use the graph above to analyze the projected energy consumption from now until 2040. which statements in the prompt apply? a) a, b, d b) b, c, d c) a, c, d d) a, b, c, d
