Learning objectives:
- Gas laws partial pressure
- Diffusion of gases
- Diffusion and transport of oxygen
o Dissolved / bound to Hb
o Oxygen-Hb Dissociation Curve
o Factors that affect release of O2
- Diffusion and transport of CO2
o Dissolved
o Bound to Hb
o Bicarbonate
- Release of CO2 in the lungs
Gas, pressure and units:
- Gas: a mixture of molecules in a continuous state of random motion
- Pressure: the F generated when the molecules collide with a surface
- Units: International Unit Pascals 1 Torr = 1mmHg = 133.3 Pascals
Partial P of gases: individual P of each gas
- If 3 dry gases in a jar (1, 2, 3), each gas will fill jar and exert a pressure
o Ptotal = P1 + P2 + P3
- Dalto’s La: I a iture of gases, eah gas ats idepedetl of the others and the total
pressure is the sum of the independent pressures
Gases dissolve in liquids:
- Gas mixture will equilibrate with solution & dissolved gas will have same partial P as the gas
mixture
o Concentration (aq) = Partial P x Solubility if diff gas, same P =/= same [ ]
- Just as gases dissolve in water, water molecules will escape from liquid and exert a partial P
(water vapour P)
o Water vapour P: the P at which water vapour is in equilibrium with its condensed
state. At 760mmHg, water vapour P at 100o C = 760mmHg boils
o At 37o C, 47mmHg

- SA for diffusion P across membrane
- Diffusion constant (depends on solubility of gas) T (thickness) of membrane
Diffusion equation:
-
- where
- SolCO2 = 20x SolO2 20x more capable to diffuse
- Emphysema: chronic lung disease that causes breathlessness. SA O2 supply to muscle
- Restrictive lung diseases: alveolar-capillary barrier T ↓ O2 transferred across into blood
Partial P of dry gasses O2 & CO2 at 760mmHg:
- PO2 = 160mmHg PCO2 = 0.23mmHg
Partial P of humidified 37oC (as in lungs) of O2, CO2: water vapour P must be considered
- PO2 = 150mmHg PCO2 = 0.21mmHg

Document Summary

Diffusion and transport of oxygen: dissolved / bound to hb, oxygen-hb dissociation curve, factors that affect release of o2. Diffusion and transport of co2: dissolved, bound to hb, bicarbonate. Units: a mixture of molecules in a continuous state of random motion the f generated when the molecules collide with a surface. Partial p of gases: individual p of each gas. If 3 dry gases in a jar (1, 2, 3), each gas will fill jar and exert a pressure: ptotal = p1 + p2 + p3. Dalto(cid:374)"s la(cid:449): i(cid:374) a (cid:373)i(cid:454)ture of gases, ea(cid:272)h gas a(cid:272)ts i(cid:374)depe(cid:374)de(cid:374)tl(cid:455) of the others and the total pressure is the sum of the independent pressures. Gas mixture will equilibrate with solution & dissolved gas will have same partial p as the gas mixture: concentration (aq) = partial p x solubility. If diff gas, same p =/= same [ ]
