(a)
Interpretation:
The partial pressure of chloroform needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The anesthetic potency expressed as minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) which is defined as percent by volume of anesthetic in the air inhaled which results in 50% of the patients become unresponsive to the surgical stimulus. The MAC value can be expressed as partial pressure of anesthetic gas. According to ideal gas, volume of the gas is directly proportional number of moles. The volume fraction of the gas is equal to the mole fraction of the gas.
(b)
Interpretation:
The mass of chloroform needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The ideal gas equation is represented as follows:
Here, P is pressure, V is volume, n is the number of moles, R is Universal gas constant and T is temperature.

- 5-111 Diving, particularly SCUBA (Self-Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus) diving, subjects the body to increased pressure. Each 10. m (approximately 33 ft) of water exerts an additional pressure of 1 atm on the body. (a) What is the pressure on the body at a depth of 100. ft? (b) The partial pressure of nitrogen gas in air at 1 atm is 593 mm Hg. Assuming a SCUBA diver breathes compressed air, what is the partial pressure of nitrogen entering the lungs from a breathing tank at a depth of 100. ft? (c) The partial pressure of oxygen gas in the air at 2 atm is 158 mm Hg. What is the partial pressure of oxygen in the air in the lungs at a depth of 100. ft?
