- The amount of oxygen present in the blood depends in part on the partial pressure of inspired oxygen in the trachea, PIO2. This can be calculated from the barometric pressure, the fraction of O2 molecules in dry air, and the vapor pressure of water at body temperature (because inhaled air is humidified in the trachea).20.9% of the molecules in dry air are O2 molecules and the vapor pressure of water at body temperature (37 °C) is 47 mm Hg. Taking the total pressure of the humidified inhaled air to be equal to the barometric pressure, calculate the PIO2 for a person in Flagstaff, CO (elevation 2121 meters), if the prevailing barometric pressure is 576 mm Hg. PIO2 = ? mm Hgarrow_forwardOne of the more commonly used compressed gases is nitrogen (N2), often in large metal cylinders.

- A gas at 110 kPa at 25.0°C fills a flexible container with an initial volume of 1.62 L. If the temperature is raised to 75.0°C and the pressure increases to 140Kpa, what is the new volume? How many liters of CO2 gas are created when is 150g of lactose is consumed? The conditions are: pressure of 1.54 atm, and the temperature is 41°C. The relationship between lactose and CO2 is:C12H22O11 + enzymes à 4 CO2+ many other byproductsarrow_forwardOne type of gas mixture used in anesthesiologyis a 50%/50% mixture (by volume) of nitrous oxide (N2O) and oxygen(O2), which can be premixed and kept in a cylinder for later use.Because these two gases don’t react chemically at or below 2000 psi, attypical room temperatures they form a homogeneous single gas phase,which can be considered an ideal gas. If the temperature drops below-6C, however, N2O may begin to condense out of the gas phase. Thenany gas removed from the cylinder will initially be nearly pure O2; asthe cylinder empties, the proportion of O2 will decrease until the gascoming from the cylinder is nearly pure N2O. In another test, the valve of a 500 L cylinder full of the gas mixture at 2000 psi (gauge pressure) is opened wide so that the gas rushes out of the cylinder very rapidly. Why might some N2O condense during this process? (a) This is an isochoric process in which the pressure decreases, so the temperature also decreases. (b) Because of the rapid expansion, heat is…arrow_forwardDetermine the volume (L) of hydrogen needed (based on room temperature 25 °C and l atm) to hydrotreat 1 liter crude oil with 1.8 wt % S to a sulfur content of 0.2 wt%.
