Gasses will always try to exchange till the reach equillibruim (like 3% for CO2 and 5% for O2 in water). Any more and it will try to gas off, any less and it will be absorbed. Agitation will speed up the process but there is a limit of saturation for both gasses (and all gasses. Neon is harder to saturate for instance).
