Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The number of moles of O2 carried per L of blood needs to be determined. Also, the number of hemoglobin molecules to carry 1.0 L of fully oxygenated blood needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Ideal Gas Equation:

This equation represents the empirical relationship between Pressure, Volume, Temperature and mole. It is represented as:

  PV= nRT

Where, P = pressure

V = volume

n = moles

R = universal gas constant = 0.08206 L atm mol-1 K-1

T = temperature

Mole to number of particle conversion:

The relation between mole and number of particles is given by Avogadro’s number as:

1 mole = 6.022×1023 number of particles (atoms, molecules, ions...)
