Answer:

Answer

The vapour pressure of air over water is 10 atm. 

The partial pressure of nitrogen =PN2=10079×10=7.9atm=7.9×760mmHg=6004 mm Hg

The partial pressure of oxygen PO2=10020×10=2.0atm=2.0×760mmHg=1520 mm Hg

According to Henry's law, 

PN2=KH(N2)×XN2

XN2=KH(N2)PN2=6.51×1076004=9.22×10−5

XO2=KHO
