If \(\mathrm{CO}_2\) gas having a partial pressure of 1.67 bar is bubbled through l L water at \(298 \mathrm{~K}\), the amount of \(\mathrm{CO}_2\) dissolved in water in \(\mathrm{g} \mathrm{L}^{-1}\) is approximately. (Henry's law constant of \(\mathrm{CO}_2\) is \(1.67 \mathrm{k}\) bar at \(298 \mathrm{~K}\) )

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 2.44

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(p_A\) be the partial pressure of \(\mathrm{CO}_2\) and \(\chi_A\) be its mole fraction \[ p_A=K_{\mathrm{H}} \chi_A(\text { Henry's law) } \] \(1.67 \mathrm{bar}=1.67 \mathrm{k}\) bar \(\times \chi_A\) (where, \(\quad x_A=0.001\) ) or \[ \frac{n_A}{n_B}=0.001 \]…
