 Estimate the molality (mol/kg) of oxygen in water at 25 °C and given that the partial pressure of O2 is 21 kPa near sea level (1 atm). (b) What would the solubility of oxygen be in water [O2] in (mmol/L)? (c) What is the solubility of [O2] in (mg/L) at that temperature? Henry’s constant for oxygen gas KO2 = 7.9 x 104 kPa kg mol-1.
