Dry air contains \(79 \% \mathrm{~N}_2\) and \(21 \% \mathrm{O}_2\). At \(\mathrm{T}(\mathrm{K})\), if Henry's law constants for \(\mathrm{N}_2\) and \(\mathrm{O}_2\) in water are \(8.57 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~atm}\) and \(4.56 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~atm}\), the ratio of mole fractions of \(\mathrm{N}_2\) and \(\mathrm{O}_2\) dissolved in water at 1 atm is

  1. A \(4: 1\)
  2. B \(1: 4\)
  3. C \(2: 1\)
  4. D \(1: 2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(2: 1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Total pressure of air over water \(=1 \mathrm{~atm}\). Partial pressure of \(\mathrm{N}_2\) and \(\mathrm{O}_2\) are…
