Chapter 11, Problem 11.22QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The reason of Henry’s law constant for ${\text{CO}}_2$ much larger than those for ${\text{N}}_2\text{and}{\text{O}}_2$ at the same temperature is to be stated.

Concept introduction: The relation between pressure and solubility of a gas is given by the formula,

$C=k_{\text{H}}\times P_{\text{gas}}$

To determine: The reason of Henry’s law constant for ${\text{CO}}_2$ much larger than those for ${\text{N}}_2\text{and}{\text{O}}_2$ at the same temperature.
