Exhaled air contains 16% oxygen by volume. Assuming you exhale like the average person does during strenuous exercise (that is, you exhale about 1L of air per breath and you exhale 40 breaths per minute) and assuming the dive will take 90 minutes, what volume of oxygen will you end up exhaling?
A high altitude weather balloon filled with helium, He, collects data as it rises through the
atmosphere.
At launch, the balloon recorded a temperature of 15.0 °C. At its maximum height of 37 km,
the temperature recorded was -25.0 °C.
