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.
<span>The first method to determine the chemical composition of a substance in space was using light. By determining red shift in the observed spectrum of light they could determine the elements they were observing. Different elements change the way light behaves and from this scientists can determine the makeup of things such as stars and nebulas.</span>
