When a gas is bubbled through water at 298 K, a very dilute solution of gas is obtained. Henry’s law constant for the gas is 100 kbar. If gas exerts a pressure of 1 bar, the number of moles of gas dissolved in 1 litre of water is
A
0.555
B
55.55×10−5
C
55.55×10−3
D
5.55×10−5
Answer
55.55×10−5
Explanation
Solution
p=kH×x
Mole fraction = Total moles Moles of gas
Moles of H2O=181000=55.55(∵1 L=1000 g)
Mole fraction =x+55.55x(55.55>>x)
