Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The Henry’s law constant for acetylene in molal/torr has to be calculated.
Concept Introduction:
Henry’s law: The solubility of a gas is directly proportional to its partial pressure at any given temperature. At pressures of few atmospheres or less, the solubilities of gases obey henry’s law. The expression for Henry’s law is given as,
Here,
The unit of proportionality constant depends on the units of concentration and the pressure.
(b)
Interpretation:
The grams of acetylene dissolved in one kg of water at
Concept Introduction:

- An aluminum-containing compound has the empirical formula (C2HS)2AIF. Find the molecular formula if 0.448 g of the compound dissolved in 23.46 g of benzene has a freezing point of 5.265 C.arrow_forwardInsulin is a hormone responsible for the regulation of glucose levels in the blood. An aqueous solution of insulin has an osmotic pressure of 2.5 mm Hg at 25C. It is prepared by dissolving 0.100 g of insulin in enough water to make 125 mL of solution. What is the molar mass of insulin?arrow_forward
