Summary Introduction
To review:
The differences between the Henry's and Dalton's law with the practical application of each.
Introduction:
Dalton's law of partial pressure suggested that sum of all the pressures of the gases present in the mixture is the pressure exerted by the mixture of gases. Henry's law suggested that the quantity of gas, which is dissolved in the liquid is found directly proportional to the Pg (partial pressure of that particular gas).

They were on the second floor of the building searching for people trapped inside when the floor beneath them fell through. They were taken immediately from the fire to the emergency room and the followiing symptoms were noted: minor burns and abrasions to exposed portions of their body, a twisted ankle from falling through the ceiling, broken ribs from falling onto their side, a cough from particulate inhalation, and an elevated heart rate. Their oxygen saturation appears normal, but their vital capacity is not much bigger than their resting tidal volume. Given this information, what is most likely causing these effects on their ventilation? O The cough. O The broken ribs. O The burns and abrasions. O. The elevated heart rate.
