Chapter 12, Problem 22E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The molar solubility of helium at $1.0\text{atm}$ pressure and $25°\text{C}$ is to be calculated.

Concept introduction: The Henry’s law states that “the amount of gas dissolved in given liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas in equilibrium with that liquid.” The concentration of gas in liquid is calculated by the formula,

  $C=K_{\text{H}}\times P$

To determine: The molar solubility of helium at $1.0\text{atm}$ pressure and $25°\text{C}$ .
