Answer:
4.5 g/L.
Explanation:
- To solve this problem, we must mention Henry's law.
- Henry's law states that at a constant temperature, the amount of a given gas dissolved in a given type and volume of liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas in equilibrium with that liquid.
- It can be expressed as: P = KS,
P is the partial pressure of the gas above the solution.
K is the Henry's law constant,
S is the solubility of the gas.
- At two different pressures, we have two different solubilities of the gas.
<em>∴ P₁S₂ = P₂S₁.</em>
P₁ = 525.0 kPa & S₁ = 10.5 g/L.
P₂ = 225.0 kPa & S₂ = ??? g/L.
∴ S₂ = P₂S₁/P₁ = (225.0 kPa)(10.5 g/L) / (525.0 kPa) = 4.5 g/L.
Answer:
There are 3 significant figures on this one.
Pure substances are further broken down into elements and compounds. Mixture are physically combined structures that can be separated into their original components. A chemical substance is composed of one type of atom or molecule.
