Assume all temperatures to be exact, and neglect significant
figures for small changes in dimension.
An athlete has a large lung capacity, 6.2 L .
Assuming air to be an ideal gas, how many molecules of air are
in the athlete's lungs when the air temperature in the lungs is 37°
C under normal atmospheric pressure?
N = _____ molecules
Homework Answers
Answer #1

The next three questions go together. 21. Expired air is
saturated with water vapor and generally contains more of it than
does inspired air. There is usually a net loss of water from the
body due to breathing. Water vapor pressure in the at saturation in
the lungs (at 37°C) is 47 mmHg, while in expired air at 33°C it is
37.7 mmHg. Consider the case of someone who is breathing dry air in
