Scuba divers breathing air at increased pressure can suffer from oxygen toxicity—too much oxygen in their bloodstream— when the partial pressure of oxygen exceeds about 1.4 atm. What happens to the amount of oxygen in a diver's bloodstream when he or she breathes oxygen at elevated pressures? How can this be reversed?

everyone's here. We have scuba divers and they experience austin toxicity due to inhaling air and increased pressures With the partial pressure of oxygen better than 1. atmosphere means that they have a high oxygen concentration in the bloodstream and asked which of the following statement is true. We're gonna look at Henry's law for this. It's gonna be the scalability of gas and polarity. You can see the Henry's law constant and polarity atmosphere. The partial pressure of gas resource states that increase pressure, I'm gonna lead to an increase in the concentration of oxygen. As the pressure increases, oxygen will more easily resolved in the blood. To reverse this process that we should ascend to lower pressures or brief special gas mixtures, lower oxygen levels. It's gonna be a thanks for watching my video and I hope it was helpful.
