QUESTION:

The solubility of N2 in blood is a serious problem for divers breathing compressed air (78% N2 by volume) at depths greater than 50 ft. (a) What is the molarity of N2 in blood at 1.00 atm? (b) What is the molarity of N2 in blood at a depth of 50. ft? (c) Find the volume (in mL) of N2, measured at 258C and 1.00 atm, released per liter of blood when a diver at a depth of 50. ft rises to the surface (kH for N2 in water at 258C is 7.031024 mol/L?atm and at 378C is 6.231024 mol/L?atm; assume d of water is 1.00 g/mL).
