Question
Chapter 15, Problem 1PE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The total pressure in the artificial atmosphere with water, nitrogen, oxygen, and argon gases is to be calculated.
Concept introduction:
Dalton’s law of partial pressure states that the total pressure of a gaseous mixture system is equals to the sum of partial pressure each gas present in the gaseous mixture system. The Dalton’s law of partial pressure is mathematically represented as shown below.

The vapor of water at ~ 5 oC has been neglected. Find this pressure in your textbook and comment on the validity of the assumption
In deep sea diving the composition of air a diver breathes must be changed in accordance with the partial pressure of oxygen in the air we breathe on the earth’s surface. Air is ~20% oxygen, or the partial pressure of oxygen in air is approximately 0.20 atm. If the total pressure exerted on a deep-sea diver is 4.5 atm during the dive, calculate the volume percent of oxygen needed in the air tanks at this depth.
