Assertion :- The amount of CO_(20 that can diffuse through the diffusion membrane per unit differnece in partial pressure is much higher compared to that of O_(2) . Reason :- The solubility of CO_(20 is 20-25 times higher than that of O_(20 solubility.

Compared to O_(2) diffusion rate of CO_(2) through the diffusion membrane per unit difference in partial pressure is much higher. Explain.

What is the partial pressure of oxygen and carbon dioxide in atmospheric air ?

Assertion: The diffusion rate of oxygen is smaller than that of nitrogen under identical conditions. Reason: Molecular mass of nitrogen is smaller than that of oxygen.
