Question

The solubility of a gas in a liquid at any definite temperature depends upon

Answer 1

Answer:

The solubility of a gas in a liquid at any definite temperature depends upon both pressure of the gas and it's critical temperature (nature of the gas)

if it is useful mark it as brainliest answer

Answer 2

The solubility of a gas in a liquid at any definite temperature depends upon the pressure and its critical temperature.

• Pressure only influences the solubility of gases in liquids.
• The effects of pressure on gas solubility in liquids are best described by combining Henry's law with Le Chatelier's principle. When the temperature is constant, Henry's law states that the solubility of the gas corresponds to its partial pressure.
• Consider the following Henry's law formula:

        p = k(h)c

• This formula shows that when the partial pressure falls (at constant temperature), the concentration of gas in the liquid reduces as well, and so the solubility decreases. When the partial pressure rises in such a condition, the concentration of gas in the liquid rises as well, as does the solubility.
• Extending the implications of Henry's law, Le Chatelier's principle becomes more effective in forecasting the effects of pressure on gas solubility.
• Consider a scenario in which a gas is partly dissolved in a liquid. A rise in pressure would result in a rise in partial pressure (because the gas is being further compressed). Because of the increased partial pressure, more gas particles will enter the liquid (there is, therefore, less gas above the liquid, thus the partial pressure lowers) to relieve the tension caused by the rise in pressure, resulting in greater solubility.
• In such a system, the opposite is also true, since a fall in pressure results in more gas particles fleeing the liquid to compensate.
