This is because Carbon dioxide is about 25 times more soluble in water than oxygen at body temperature. Carbon dioxide is more soluble because a chemical reaction takes place with water when it dissolves forming Carbonic acid when combined with water. There is no chemical reaction taking place when oxygen dissolves in water.
yes :p
Helium diffuses twice faster as Methane does.
CO2 is much smaller than SO2
more carbon dioxide will diffuse out of the blood
carbon dioxide
CO2 diffuses faster because it has a lower molecular mass.
In an atmosphere of carbon dioxide, warm carbon dioxide would rise. Since carbon dioxide is better than twice as dense as air, it would need to be really hot before it would rise.
CO diffuses faster than CO2 because it is a smaller molecule
Yes because the rmm of carbon monoxide is 28 while the rmm of oxygen is 32.
its the blood which act as a transporter and the concentration of blood determines that oxygen will diffuse faster than carbon dioxide due to its small molecular weight but if diffusion occur in such manner then amount of carbon dioxide will be automatically more. carbon dioxide is a toxic gas and its presence in more amount can causes problems by increasing the PH of blood,but carbon dioxide has an affinity for water. The excess carbon dioxide gets dissolve in water or simply we can say in plasma of blood more than oxygen so its its excrete in lungs and passes from lungs to mouth in atmosphere following bronchioles and bronchi.
why does Co2 diffuse faster than So2
It becomes faster, in order to get reed of extra carbon bi oxide.
