Carbon dioxide diffuses through the membrane more rapidly than oxygen due to its solubility being 20 to 25 times higher.
Carbon dioxide diffuses much faster than oxygen because its solubility is 20 to 25 times greater.
| Front | compare the rate of diffusion of carbon dioxide and oxygen giving reason for the same |
|---|---|
| Back | solubility of carbon dioxide is 20 to 25 times more than that of oxygen thus carbon dioxide diffuse through the membrane much faster |
