Hemoglobin has a much greater affinity for carbon monoxide than oxygen. In a hyperbaric chamber (containing high levels of oxygen) can treat carbon monoxide poisoning, by displacing carbon monoxide from Hemoglobin competitively.
Hemoglobin has a much greater affinity for carbon monoxide than oxygen. This is because, a coordinate bond is formed with Carbon monoxide and Haem structure of the hemoglobin.
Carbon monoxide with Hemoglobin is called as Carboxy haemoglobin.
Presence of oxygen displaces the Carbon monoxide with Hemoglobin that is formed due to poisoning.
Hyperbaric chamber is a chamber which contains pure oxygen in a chamber. The atmospheric pressure is kept about three to four times than the normal, such that the replacement of Carbon monoxide from Haem can occur as fast as possible since this reduces the half life of the Carboxy haemoglobin.
It is advisable not to treat Carbon monoxide poisoning yourself.
Hyperbaric oxygen is used to treat the following conditions as well:
- Infections
- Wounds
- Air bubble is blood

Answer:
What's the question so I can help?
I will just edit my answer when you have asked your question and post it here.
Explanation:
Answer: The given statement is true.
Explanation:
When we increase the amount of solvent which is water in this case then it means there will occur an increase in the molecules. Hence, there will be more number of collisions to take place with increase in number of molecules.
Therefore, more is the amount of interaction taking place between the molecules of a solution more will be its rate of hydrolysis.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement increasing the amount of water in which the sugar is dissolved will increase the frequency of collisions between the sucrose molecules and the water molecules resulting in an increase in the rate of hydrolysis, is true.
What is your question about it?
Can't say i can answer this. :/
