What is the concentration of O2 in freshwater? Air temperature= 295.65 K. Air pressure = 1 bar(about = to 1atm). Henry's constant, from the table= 1.3 x 10-3 mol/ (kg x bar). PO2 can be calculated from the fact that oxygen is .21 mole fraction of air. Hint- The partial pressure of a gas in a mix of gasses is found by multiplying the total pressure by the mole fraction of that gas. Find the concentration in g/kg from the answer you just got.
Osmotic pressures are often reported in units of atmospheres or mm Hg. The latter impliesthat the height of a column of liquid can be used as a measure of pressure. This is, in fact, thebasis of the torricellian barometer from which the units of “torr” come. The pressure, P, isrelated to the height of the column by:P = ρghwhere ρ is the density of the liquid, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height. Whatwill be the height (in mm) of a column of aqueous solution with a density of 0.9987 g/mL, if theosmotic pressure of the solution at 25 °C is 1.4 mm Hg? The density of mercury at thistemperature is 13.8 g/mL

Forensic chemists use superglue to help them see fingerprints left behind at crime scenes. If cyanoacrylate, the main component of superglue, is vaporized it will be attracted to the oils left behind after someone touches an object.
