Answer : The solubility of carbon monoxide gas at pressure 200 kPa is, 6.579 g/L
Explanation :
According top the Henry's Law, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas.
[tex]S\propto P[/tex]
or,
[tex]\frac{S_1}{S_2}=\frac{P_1}{P_2}[/tex]
where,
[tex]S_1[/tex] = initial solubility of gas = [tex]\frac{10g}{3L}[/tex]
[tex]S_2[/tex] = final solubility of gas = ?
[tex]P_1[/tex] = initial pressure of gas = 101.325 kPa (at STP)
[tex]P_2[/tex] = final pressure of gas = 200 kPa
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the final solubility of the gas.
[tex]\frac{\frac{10g}{3L}}{S_2}=\frac{101.325kPa}{200kPa}[/tex]
[tex]S_2=6.579g/L[/tex]
Therefore, the solubility of carbon monoxide gas at pressure 200 kPa is, 6.579 g/L
