Question
Chapter 11, Problem 8E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
“Ear pains experienced while there is rapid change in altitude” should be identified.
Concept introduction:
There is a balance in the pressure of ear and atmospheric pressure. They are almost equal. This pressure is in the middle part of ear which is susceptible to changes in air pressure.

Explain why people may experience ear pain after a rapid change in altitude.
In an adult human, fully expanded lungs have a total lung capacity
(TLC) of about 6 L. Some air remains after complete exhalation, and
this volume is the functional residual capacity (FRC).
A specific person has a known functional residual lung capacity (FRC)
of 2.53 L and a total lung capacity (TLC) of 5.06 L. This person is in a
room with an atmospheric pressure of 758.2 mmHg. Their internal
temperature is 37.20 °C. How many moles of gas are exhaled with
each breath?

A sample of methane gas at a pressure of 0.947 atm and a temperature of 29.0 °C, occupies a volume of 711 mL. If the gas is allowed to expand at constant temperature until its
pressure is 0.504 atm, the volume of the gas sample will be |
mL.
