Hb(aq) + O2(g)= HbO2(aq)
O The oxygen concentration is decreased.
Answer the following questions to describe what
happens when oxygen is first supplied.
O The oxygen concentration is increased.
O The HbO2 concentration is decreased.
The hemoglobin concentration is increased.
In what direction does the hemoglobin equilibrium shift?
O The equilibrium shifts in the direction of the reactants.
O The equilibrium shifts in the direction of the products.
O The equilibrium does not change.
