(ii) pO2 higher, pCO2 lesser
The partial pressure of oxygen in atmospheric air is higher than that of oxygen in alveolar air. In atmospheric air, pO2 is about 159 mm Hg....
(a) Chemical change
(b) Acidic and basic solutions can be prepared by dissolving the products of the above process in water
CaO+H2O →Ca(OH)2 (basic solution)
CO2 + H2O→H2 CO3 (acidic solution)
CaCl2is known to increase the efficiency of DNA uptake to produce transformed bacterial cells. The divalent Ca+2 ions supposedly create transient pores on the bacterial cell wall by which the...
