This chapter illustrates the use of a mass balance approach to estimate the relationship between alveolar ventilation rate and partial pressure of oxygen in the alveolar gas (Figure 7.13). Perform a similar analysis on carbon dioxide and plot the alveolar partial pressure of carbon dioxide as a function of alveolar ventilation rate for two carbon dioxide generation rates in the body: 200 mL/min and 500 mL/min.
