The circulation of blood in human body supplies `O_(2)` and releases `CO_(2)`. The concentration of `O_(2)` and `CO_(2)` is variable but on the average, `100 mL` blood contains `0.02 g` of `O_(2)` and `0.08 g` of `CO_(2)`. Calculate the volume of `O_(2)` and `CO_(2)` at `1` atmosphere and body temperature of `37^(@)C` assuming `10 L` of blood in human body.

Explanation

100 mL blood contains `0.02 g O_(2)` and `0.08 g CO_(2)`
`:.` 10 L=10,000 mL blood will contain `O_(2)=(0.02)/(100)xx10000=2g" and " CO_(2)=(0.08)/(100)xx10000=8g`
`PV=nRT=(w)/(M)RT`
`:. " For "O_(2)," "1xxV=(2)/(32)xx0.0821xx310 " or "V_(o_(2))=1.59 L`
For `CO_(2), " " 1xxV=(8)/(44)xx0.0821xx310 " or "V_(CO_(2))=4.62 L`
