An air-purification method for enclosed spaces involves the useof \"scrubbers\" containing aqueous lithium hydroxide, which reactswith carbon dioxide to produce lithium carbonate and water:2LiOH(aq) + CO2(g) → Li2CO3(s) + H2O(l) Consider the air supply ina submarine with a total volume of 1.6 × 105 L. The pressure is0.9970 atm, and the temperature is 25°C. By how much would thepressure in the submarine drop if 2.35 kg of LiOH were completelyconsumed by reaction with CO2?
