$<b>$

HENRY'S LAW:
it states that ""the solubility of a gas in the liquid is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas ""

APPLICATIONS OF HENRY'S LAW:

1) To increase the solubility of carbon dioxide in soda water and soft drinks the bottle is sealed under high pressure

2) To avoid the toxic effects of high concentration of Nitrogen in the blood the tanks used by Scuba divers are filled with air diluted with helium

3) At high altitude low blood oxygen causes climbus to become we can make them unable to think clearly which are symptoms of conditions of known as anoxia .

Answer 2

Applications of Henry’s law

• Sealing of soft drink bottles at high pressure increases the solubility of CO2 in soft drinks and soda water.
• When a diver goes underwater his body is subjected to high pressure. Due to this the body tissues absorbs more gases. The breathed in oxygen is required for cellular respiration to provide energy to the diver. But the nitrogen gets absorbed into the body tissues.
• At high heights the fractional weight of oxygen is not as much as that at the ground level. This stimulates low concentrations of oxygen in the blood and tissues of individuals living at high heights or climbers. Low blood oxygen causes climbers to feel feeble and not able to think plainly, indications of a condition known as anoxia.
