Question

On the basis of Boyle's law, explain why mountaineers carry oxygen cylinders with them.

Answer 1

Mountaineers have to carry oxygen cylinders with them to restore normal breathing because at high altitude the density of air is less. That means less oxygen molecules occupy the same volume. Therefore, oxygen in air becomes insufficient for normal breathing.

Answer 2

Mountaineers carry an oxygen cylinder along with them. It is because when they climb mountains, as altitude increases, the amount of oxygen level in the atmospheric air decreases as trees are not found at higher altitudes. As a result, mountaineers suffer from dizziness. It can also lead to hypoxia.
