Calculate the mass of oxygen gas (O2) dissolved in a 5.00 L bucket of water exposed to a pressure of 1.13 atm of air. Assume the mole fraction of oxygen in air to be 0.210 and the Henry's law constant for air in water at this temperature to be 1.30 × 10-3 M/atm. Report your answer in mg.

The mass of oxygen gas dissolved in a 5.00 L bucket of water exposed to a pressure of 1.13 atm of air is 0.04936 grams.

Explanation:

Henry's law states that the amount of gas dissolved or molar solubility of gas is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the liquid.

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

where,

= Henry's constant =

= partial pressure of oxygen

We have :

Pressure of the air = P

Mole fraction of oxygen in air =

= Henry's constant =

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Moles of oxygen gas = n

Volume of water = V = 5 L

Mass of 0.001542 moles of oxygen gas:

0.001542 mol × 32 g/mol = 0.04936 g

The mass of oxygen gas dissolved in a 5.00 L bucket of water exposed to a pressure of 1.13 atm of air is 0.04936 grams.

conduction is the transfer of thermal energy (heat in transfer) due to collisions between the molecules in the object. collisions between adjacent atoms and molecules transfer kinetic energy from the warmer to the cooler object. the objects must be in physical contact.
