Apply
time = x2 / (2D)
where
D = diffusion constant = 10-9 m2/s
x = distance = 15 mm = 15 *10-3 m
then, substitute
t = (15 *10-3)2 / 2 * 10-9
= 112.5 * 10-3 sec
= 3.125 * 10 -5 hours
How long on average would it take an oxygen gas molecule (02) to diffuse a distance...
The diffusion constant of oxygen through water is an important limiting factor in the size of organisms that do not have active transport mechanisms to circulate oxygen through their systems. The diffusion constant or oxygen through water is 8 x 10-10 m2s-1. one average, how long does it take for an oxygen molecule to diffuse 1 mm through water?
How would we estimate the average distance between molecules at STP? (e) Chemists often use the shorthand notation "STP' for standard temperature and pres- sure, or T = 273 K and P = 1.0 bar. What is the number density of an ideal gas at STP, nstp? Estimate the average distance between molecules at STP, in nanometers, and compare this to the size of a typical diatomic molecule (e.g., N2 or 02) of ~ 400 pm (1 pm = 10-12m).
How can you see a molecule of air (oxygen) if is invisible and no one can grave it?
Question 7 1 pts Compared with oxygen, at what rate does CO2 diffuse across the alveolar-capillary membrane? O CO2 diffuses 20 times faster than O2 O CO2 diffuses 44 times slower than 02 O CO2 diffuses 20 times slower than 02 O CO2 diffuses 44 times faster than 02 Question 8 1 pts What is the term for the situation when the transfer of gas across the alveolar wall is dependent upon the blood flow past the alveolus? O perfusion...

When normal breathing, how long would it take for a someone to breath 1/2 of their alveolar air before it is exchanged with air? During normal respiration (assume average values for all pertinent parameters), approximately how long must a person breathe before half of their alveolar air is exchanged with atmospheric air?
Problem 4: The mean free path of a gas, 2, is defined as the average distance traveled by molecules between collisions. A commonly used formula for estimating 2 of an ideal gas is: where џ is the viscosity of the gas, is the density of air. T is the temperature in Kelvin, and C is an experimentally determined constant. Calculate the mean free path of air (in units of nm) at 25 °C and standard atmospheric pressure if the viscosity...
