The Henry's Law constant (k) for carbon monoxide in water at 25°C is 9.71 x 10-4 mol/(L·atm). How many grams of CO will dissolve
in 1.00 L of water if the partial pressure of CO is 2.75 atm? A) 3.53 x 10-4 g D) 7.48 x 10-2 g B) 2.67 x10-3 g E) None of these choices is correct. C) 9.89 x 10-3 g
Henry's law is a gas law that states that the amount of dissolved gas in a liquid is proportional to its partial pressure above the liquid. The proportionality factor is called Henry's law constant. (Wikipedia)
Given that; C =kP
C= concentration of a dissolved gas = ?
k = Henry's Law constant = 9.71 x 10-4 mol/(L·atm)
The qualities of a good hypothesis are: 1) Logically consistent with other theories and data 2) Have explanatory power 3) Be empirically testable 4) Similar hypothesis is the better hypothesis.
