(a)
Interpretation:
Moles of oxygen should be calculated that are required to be filled in the hyperbaric chamber with the volume of 200 L at room temperature (23° C) and 3.00 atm pressure.
Concept Introduction:
The ideal gas equation is as follows:
Here, p is the pressure, v is the volume, n is the number of moles, r is the gas constant and t is the temperature.
Also, number of moles of gas is related to mass and molar mass as follows:
Here, m is mass and m is molar mass.

- 5-111 Diving, particularly SCUBA (Self-Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus) diving, subjects the body to increased pressure. Each 10. m (approximately 33 ft) of water exerts an additional pressure of 1 atm on the body. (a) What is the pressure on the body at a depth of 100. ft? (b) The partial pressure of nitrogen gas in air at 1 atm is 593 mm Hg. Assuming a SCUBA diver breathes compressed air, what is the partial pressure of nitrogen entering the lungs from a breathing tank at a depth of 100. ft? (c) The partial pressure of oxygen gas in the air at 2 atm is 158 mm Hg. What is the partial pressure of oxygen in the air in the lungs at a depth of 100. ft? (d) Why is it absolutely essential to exhale vigorously in a rapid ascent from a depth of 100. ft?arrow_forward5-33 A certain quantity of helium gas is at a temperature of 27 °C and a pressure of 1.00 atm.

- 5-89 (Chemical Connections 5C) In a sphygmomanometer one listens to the first tapping sound as the constrictive pressure of the arm cuff is slowly released. What is the significance of this tapping sound?arrow_forward5-16 Answer true or false. (a) For a sample of gas at constant temperature, its pressure multiplied by its volume is a constant. (b) For a sample of gas at constant temperature, increasing the pressure increases the volume. (c) For a sample of gas at constant temperature, (d) As a gas expands at constant temperature, its volume increases. (e) The volume of a sample of gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to its temperature—the higher its temperature, the greater its volume. (f) A hot-air balloon rises because hot air is less dense than cooler air. (g) For a gas sample in a container of fixed volume, an increase in temperature results in an increase in pressure. (h) For a gas sample in a container of fixed volume, is a constant. (i) When steam at 100°C in an autoclave is heated to 1200C, the pressure within the autoclave increases. (j) When a gas sample in a flexible container at constant pressure at 25°C is heated to 50°C, its volume doubles. (k) Lowering the diaphragm causes the chest cavity to increase in volume and the pressure of air in the lungs to decrease. (l) Raising the diaphragm decreases the volume of the chest cavity and forces air out of the lungs.arrow_forwardA typical barometric pressure in Kansas City is 740 torr. What is this pressure in atmospheres, in millimeters of mercury, and in kilopascals?arrow_forward
