very very variable...
but there is a calculation that can be done
its the forced expiratory volume / function residual capacity
basically you breath out REALLY HARD, and then take another big breath in, and then you can work out how much air remains in your lungs compared to how much you force out
the average is around 85% plus below 80% and your looking at emphysema, and higher then this then your looking at obstructive disorders.
as you can tell, this eliminates size as a factor in lung capacity, and simply gives us a nice round % which we can use on everyone, and get an average, so theres no real answer to your question...
What else can I help you with?
What is the equation to measure lung volume?
The equation to measure lung volume is Total Lung Capacity (TLC) = Vital Capacity (VC) + Residual Volume (RV). TLC represents the maximum amount of air the lungs can hold, VC is the maximum amount of air that can be exhaled after a deep inhalation, and RV is the amount of air that remains in the lungs after maximum exhalation.
Why do you think some people can inhale more air at one time than others can?
Differences in lung capacity, age, physical fitness, and respiratory efficiency can all contribute to variations in the amount of air that individuals can inhale at one time. Factors such as lung size and strength of respiratory muscles also play a role in determining lung capacity.
What is the maxium amount of air that a typical person can inhale in one breath?
The vital capacity. In a normal, healthy adult human, it is about 4-5 liters.
What is the amount of air hat can be exhaled with the greatest possible exhalation after the deepest inhalation called?
The amount of air that can be exhaled after the deepest inhalation is called the vital capacity. It is the maximum amount of air a person can exhale after taking the deepest breath possible. It is an important measure of lung function.
What is the approximate volume of inspiratory reserve volume?
The average inspiratory reserve volume (IRV) for adults is around 3,000-3,500 mL. This volume represents the maximum amount of air a person can inhale beyond their normal tidal volume during a deep breath. It is an important component of lung capacity and respiratory function.
What does it mean when someone's lungs are stretched to capacity?
Also known as Total Lung Capacity- the maximum amount of air your lungs can hold if you forcefully inhale.
What causes the difference in the amount of oxygen you inhale?
Factors such as physical activity level, altitude, lung health, and individual differences in lung capacity and efficiency can affect the amount of oxygen you inhale. Additionally, breathing patterns and techniques can also impact how much oxygen you take in with each breath.
What happen to the lung if you are inhale?

How is total lung capacity calculated?
Total lung capacity is calculated by adding together the vital capacity (the maximum amount of air exhaled after a maximum inhalation) and the residual volume (the amount of air remaining in the lungs after a maximum exhalation). This calculation gives the total volume of air that the lungs can hold at the end of a maximum inhalation.
What is FEV1 and what is it used for?
The maximum volume of air that can be exhaled in 1s. To compare with predicted value for healthy lung function.
Can inhale screaming cause a lung to colapse?
squidward: "no patrick , inhaling does not cause a lung to collapse"
What is the maxium amount of air that a typical person can inhale in one breath?

Describe a healthy lung?
a healthy lung is nice and pink

What is the funtcion of the lung?
To inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide
