As climbers ascend (go up) a mountain, the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere
decreases. In the body, hemoglobin (Hb) in red blood cells binds with oxygen (02) to
form oxyhemoglobin (HbO2).

This equation can be used to model the equilibrium between hemoglobin , oxygen,
and oxyhemoglobin.

Hb + O2 <--> HbO2

According to Le Chatelier, how would the equilibrium shift as the climbers ascend to
higher altitudes?

How do cfcs cause ozone depletion? how do cfcs cause ozone depletion? ultraviolet radiation breaks down cfcs, molecules containing chlorine. chlorine then breaks one oxygen atom away from ozone, leaving behind a paired oxygen molecule. ultraviolet radiation breaks down cfcs, molecules containing chlorine. chlorine then breaks two oxygen atoms away from ozone, leaving behind a paired oxygen molecule. ultraviolet radiation creates cfcs, molecules containing chlorine. chlorine then breaks two oxygen atoms away from ozone, leaving behind a paired oxygen molecule. ultraviolet radiation creates cfcs, molecules containing chlorine. chlorine then breaks one oxygen atom away from ozone, leaving behind a paired oxygen molecule.
