What happens when carbondioxide is compressed in water at high pressure?

Open in App

Solution

When carbon dioxide is compressed in water at high pressure, carbon dioxide gas is dissolved in the liquid. When pressure is released, the carbon dioxide releases from the liquid as a gas.
According to the Henry's Law, It states that the amount of gas dissolved is proportional to the partial pressure.
Reaction- $H_{2} O (l) + C O_{2} (g) H i g h P r e s s u r e - --------- \to H_{2} C O_{3} (l)$
