The circulation of blood in the human body supplied oxygen and removes carbon dioxide. The concentration of oxygen and carbon dioxide is variable but on an average 100 ml of blood contains 0.02 g of oxygen and 0.08 g of carbon dioxide. Calculate the volume of oxygen and carbon dioxide at 1 atm and body temperature `(37^(@)C)` assuming that there are 10 litres of blood in the human body.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to calculate the volume of oxygen (O₂) and carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the human body based on the given concentrations in the blood. We will use the ideal gas law, which is represented by the equation: \[ PV = nRT \] Where: - \( P \) = pressure (in atm) - \( V \) = volume (in liters) - \( n \) = number of moles of gas ...
