The air that can not be exhaled is called residual volume.

TV = the amount of air displaced during normal breathing.

IRV = The amount of air that can be taken in forcibly beyond tidal volume

Erv= The amount of that can be expelled forcibly.

Vital capacity = the total amount of exchangeable air.

Total Lung capacity = TV + IRV + ERV + RESIDUAL VOLUME
