Question

KH value of nitrogen at 293 kelvin is 76.4 8 and oxygen at 293 kelvin is 34.8 6 which gas is more soluble in water

Answer 1

K

H

=

x

p

At a constant pressure K

H

is inversely proportional to x therefore higher the K

H

lower the solubility.

The increasing solubility order is:

He<N
