As we descend the pressure on our lungs increases and our lung volume decreases. So, when we do the opposite and ascend, the higher we ascend on one breath of air the more the pressure drops and the more our lungs expand. Overexpansion of the lung can lead to serious injuries.

How many molecules of oxygen are in one breath? an animal takes a breath with a volume of 5.80 L at standard temperature and pressure. If the air contains 20.9% oxygen. ................O2 molecules

V(O2)=5.80*0.209=1.212(L)PV=nRTn=PV/RTn=1*1.212/0.082*273.15 =0.054(mol)N=n*Na=0.054*6.02•1023=3.25•1022Answer: 3.25•1022 O2 molecules.
