Question

Scuba divers breathing air at increased pressure can sul fer from oxygen toxicity—too much oxygen in the blood. stream—when the partial pressure of oxygen exceeds about 1.4 atm. What happens to the amount of oxygen in a diver's bloodstream when he or she breathes oxygen at elevated pressures? How can this be reversed?

Answer 1

Answer:-

These questions are answered by using simple concept of solubility of gases in liquid and calculation of molarity using the formula.

The answer is given in the image,

Answers At the elevated pressure, the amovent of origen en diver's blooel increases at the solubility q gasesin liquid is directly proportional to the pressure. . This can be reversed by adding He-ges to the cylinder 6D a Mdality = moles lolame(L) = 1.54 .22.2 30.0694 M. cos Molarity = 0.101 604 = 0.0158M C) Molarity – malesx 1000 Lolumelmes =0.0323x1000 76.2 = 0, 424M
