The space shuttle environment control system handles excess CO2 (it is 4.0% by mass of exhaled air) by reacting it with lithium hydroxide, LiOH, pellets to form lithium carbonate,Li2CO3, and water. If there are 7 astronauts on board and each exhales 20. L of air per minute, how long could clean air be generated if there were 25,000g of LiOH available. Assume the density of air to be 0.0010 g/ml
