The Henry’s law constant (kH) for O₂ in water at 20°C is 1.28x10⁻³ mol/L?atm. (a) How many grams of O₂ will dissolve in 2.50 L of H₂O that is in contact with pure O₂ at 1.00 atm?

Respuesta :

102.3936× [tex]10^{-3}[/tex]g of oxygen gas was dissolved in 2.50 Liters of water.

The Henry's law constant for oxygen gas in water at 20°C =k = 1.28 ×[tex]10^{-3}[/tex]mol/(Latm)

The pressure of pure oxygen gas above water = p=1 atm

The solubility of the oxygen gas in water:

S= 1.28 ×[tex]10^{-3}[/tex]mol/(Latm) ×1.00atm

S= 1.28 ×[tex]10^{-3}[/tex]mol/L

There are 1.28 ×[tex]10^{-3}[/tex]  moles of oxygen gas in 1 liter of water

The volume of the water = 4.00 L

Moles of oxygen gas in 4.00 L of water:

1.28 ×[tex]10^{-3}[/tex]×2.50mol = 3.2× [tex]10^{-3[/tex]mol

Mass of  3.2×      [tex]10^{-3[/tex] moles of oxygen gas:

=3.2× [tex]10^{-3[/tex] mol× 31.998 g/mol =102.3936× [tex]10^{-3}[/tex]g
