1. Why is it necessary to equalize the pressure(i.e, have the water level the same in each tube) before taking a volume reading?

1 answer:

3 0

Answer:

If you contact water with a gas at a certain temperature and (partial) pressure, the concentration of the gas in the water will reach an equilibrium ('saturation') according to Henry's law.

Explanation:

This means: if you increase the pressure (e.g. by keeping the vial closed), the CO2 concentration will increase. So it simply depends what concentration you need for your assay: 'CO2-saturated' water at low pressure or 'CO2-saturated' water at high pressure.

SpyIntel [72]

To determine whether the amount of H2 in the lab is dangerous, we first need to know how much hydrogen gas is present in the room in units of percent by volume. For this particular problem, we cannot exactly determine since we do not know the total volume of the room. Hope this answers the question.
