Question

Carbon monoxide is toxic because it can successfully compete with oxygen for hemoglobin (Hb) sites according to the following equilibrium:
Hb(O2)4(aq) + 4CO(g) Hb(CO)4(aq) + 4O2(g)
From Le Chtelier's principle, CO poisoning is reversed by
A) increasing the O2pressure.
B) decreasing the amount of Hb.
C) increasing the CO2pressure.
D) increasing the CO pressure.
