![Question:
Question 4
Assuming they have a blood volume of 5.00 L, what is the total volume of nitrogen gas dissolved in their blood when they are at 50.0 m
depth? The volume of nitrogen should be calculated at a pressure of 1.00 atm and a temperature of 20.0 C.
You can assume the temperature of the diver's blood is 37.0 C and that they are breathing compressed air with a composition of 78% N2, 21%
02, and 1% Ar (by volume) at a total pressure of 5.00 atm.
[A]=KHPP
where [A] is the concentration of gas A in water, K is the Henry's Law constant for gas A, and P_A is the partial pressure of gas A.
In SCUBA diving, sometimes helium is substituted for nitrogen in the breathing mixture (these gas mixes are called "heliox" gases) to reduce
the effects of decompression sickness (the bends) because it has a lower solubility than nitrogen.
If the Henry's Law constant, KH, for helium is 4.44 x 104 M atm¹1, what is the volume of helium contained in the blood of the same diver under
the same conditions as described in Question 4?](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F33a1b850-bf77-4f24-8dca-6f385fdd0e5e%2F2b97d911-7353-4cba-9e64-0fcdcd1124c1%2Fwmxln4_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
