The helium is included to reduce the effects of nitrogen narcosis and oxygen toxicity that occur when too much nitrogen and oxygen dissolve in the blood. A tank of Trimix has a total pressure of 200 atm, and the partial pressure of He is 34 atm. What is the percent by volume of He in the tank? (LO 10.7) (a) 17% (b) 38% (c) 23% (d) 83%1444views1rank
