Solution

  • According to Henry's law, pCO2=KH.χ
pCO2=partial pressure of CO2=2×108bar
KH=Henry's law constant =6.02×104bar
χ=mole fraction of CO2
  • χ=number of moles of CO2number of moles of CO2+number of moles of H2O=number of moles of CO2number of moles of H2O
(since, the moles of CO2 are negligible in comparison to H2O)
number of moles of H2O=given weight of H2Omolecular weight of H2O=900g18g=50
(As, 1ml=1g so, 900ml=900g)
  • Number of moles of CO2=pCO2×number of moles of H2OKH
Number of moles of CO2=2×108×506.02×104=1026.02
Number of molecules of CO2=1026.02×6.02×1023=1021molecules
