The volume of blood in the body of a certain deep-sea diver


The volume of blood in the body of a certain deep-sea diver is about 7L. What is the maximum volume of nitrogen measured at 1atm and 37 celsius that could dissolve in the diver's blood plasma at a particular depth where the pressure is 10.3atm? Blood cells make up about 55% of the blood volume, and the remaining 45% is the aqueous solution called plasma. Assume Henry's constant for nitrogen at 37 celsius is 0.00058 mol/(L*atm). (body temperature). Answer in units of L.
