Question
If an individual draws a breath of 1.00 L at $16^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$, what is the new volume of air as it warms to $37^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ ? Assume the pressure and amount of gas remains constant.
Step 1
The initial volume (V1) is 1.00 L, the initial temperature (T1) is 16°C, and we need to convert this temperature to Kelvin. Show more…

A normal breath of air is about $1.00 \mathrm{~L}$. If the air is drawn in at $18^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and is warmed to $37{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C},$ what will be the new volume of the air? Assume that the pressure and amount of the gas remain constant.
A person draws a normal breath of about 1.00 L. If the initial temperature of the air is 18°C and the air warms to 37°C, what is the new volume of the air? Assume that the pressure and amount of the gas remain constant.
BIO After emptying her lungs, a person inhales 4.3 L of air at $0.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and holds her breath. How much does the volume of the air increase as it warms to her body temperature of $35^{\circ} \mathrm{C} ?$
