文档介绍：Partial Pressure of Individual Gases in a Gas Mixture
Above the absolute temperature, all molecules of all matter are continually undergoing motion.
Pressure is caused by multiple impacts of moving molecules against a surface either in air, liquid or other forms of matter.
The partial pressure is directly proportional to the concentration of the gas molecule for air.

Applied Gas Laws
Question
At the sea level (barometric pressure is 760 mmHg), how much is the partial pressure of oxygen if we know air consists of 21% oxygen?
Hints
Dalton’s law states that the total pressure exerted by a gaseous mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of each gas component in the gas mixture.
In a mixture of gases, the partial pressure of a given gas is directly proportional to the volume that gas contributes to the total volume.

Answers
PB = PN2 + PO2 + PHO2 + PCO2 (at the sea level, PB = 760 mmHg).
Where
PB = barometric pressure at the sea level.
Where PN2 is the partial pressure of nitrogen.
PO2 is the partial pressure of oxygen (氧分压).
PO2 in the air = 760 mmHg X = 160 mmHg .

Water Vapor (水蒸汽） Lowers PO2 once Air Is Being Humidified（湿化）
Air is being warmed and humidified before reaching alveoli.
Water vapor does not change the percentage of O2 or N2 but does low the partial pressure of O2 or N2.
In humidified air,
PO2= (760 – 47) X = 150 mmHg
PN2 = (760 – 47) X = 563 mmHg

The Partial Pressure of Oxygen in the Alveolar Space is down to 102 mmHg
Two reasons cause this “down”
The existence of FRC results in dilution of air
