Question
At high altitudes, mountain climbers are unable to
absorb a sufficient amount of O2 into their
bloodstreams to maintain a high activity level. At a
pressure of 1.00 bar, blood is typically 95.0%
saturated with O2, but near 0 feet where the pressure
is 0.660 bar, the corresponding degree of saturation
is 60.0%. Air contains 20.99% O2 by volume. Assume
that the density of blood is 998 kg m -3
Part A
Assuming that the Henry's law constant for blood is the same as for water (4.95 x 104 bar), calculate the amount of O₂ dissolved in
1.00 L of blood for pressure of 1.00 bar.
