If a scuba diver inhales 0.50 L of air at a depth of 100. ft and 4.0 atm pressure, what volume does this air occupy at the surface of the water, assuming air pressure is 1.0 atm? When a scuba diver must make a rapid ascent to the surface, he is told to exhale slowly as he ascends. How does your result support this recommendation?
