Detailed Solution

The solubility of carbon dioxide (CO₂) in a given substance is approximately 20-25 times higher than the solubility of oxygen (O₂). Due to this difference in solubility, a significantly larger amount of CO₂ can diffuse through the diffusion membrane per unit difference in partial pressure compared to the diffusion of O₂.
