valve
Consider the following two gas containers with equal volume: if the valve is opened and
the gases allowed to mix, what will be the resulting partial pressures of each gas?
pO2=80mmHg; pN2=80mmGh; pCO2=40mmHg
-> pO2=(60mmHg+80mmHg)/2=70mmHg; pN2=(80mmHg+60mmHg)/2=70mmHg;
pCO2=(40mmHg+40mmHg)/2=40mmHg
pO2=60mmHg; pN2=60mmHg; pCO2=60mmHg
pO2=60mmHg; pN2=60mmHg; pCO2=40mmHg
