Question

The circulation of blood in human body supplies O₂ and releases CO₂. It results the variation in concentration of O₂ and CO₂ in the body. But on an average, blood contains 0.32 g of O₂ and 0.88 g of CO₂ per litre. What should be the volume occupied by O₂ and CO₂, as gas, at 1 atm and at body temperature 37°C, assuming 10 litre blood in human body?

Options:

Answer:

C

Solution:

O₂: 3.2 g = 0.1 mol ⇒ V = 0.1 × 0.0821 × 310 = 2.545 l. CO₂: 8.8 g = 0.2 mol ⇒ V = 0.2 × 0.0821 × 310 = 5.09 l. Matches (c).
