Why might a major volcanic eruption lead to cooler temperatures of Earth's surface?

EastWind [94]3 years ago

When a volcano erupts it releases a large amount of dust, smog, rock, and other materials. Basically, these bits and pieces float to form a metaphorical dust cloud. These clouds can often block out the sun like an ordinary cloud; however, because the cloud is dark, even less sun will be able to get through. So because the sun can't reach the ground, the temperature might decrease.

The solubility of CO2 in water is 0.161 g/100 mL at 20oC and a partial pressure of CO2 of 760 mmHg. What partial pressure of CO2
Schach [20]

<u>Answer:</u> The partial pressure of carbon dioxide having solubility 0.886g/100mL is 4182.4 mmHg

<u>Explanation:</u>

Henry's law states that the amount of gas dissolved or molar solubility of gas is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the liquid.

The equation given by Henry's law is:

C_{CO_2}=K_H\times p_{CO_2}       ......(1)

where,

C_{CO_2 = solubility of carbon dioxide in water = 0.161 g/100 mL

K_H = Henry's constant = ?

p_{CO_2} = partial pressure of carbon dioxide = 760 mmHg

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

760mmHg=K_H\times 0.161g/100mL\\\\K_H=\frac{760mmHg}{0.161g/100mL}=4720.5g.mmHg/100mL

Now, calculating the pressure of carbon dioxide using equation 1, we get:

C_{CO_2 = solubility of carbon dioxide in water = 0.886 g/100 mL

K_H = Henry's constant = 4720.5 g.mmHg/100 mL

p_{CO_2} = partial pressure of carbon dioxide = ?

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

p_{CO_2}=4720.5g.mmHg/100mL\times 0.886g/100mL=4182.4mmHg

Hence, the partial pressure of carbon dioxide having solubility 0.886g/100mL is 4182.4 mmHg
