Question

What is mole fraction and what will be the it's effect on solubility if I decrease it . ??and why

Answer 1

Mole fraction is a unit of concentration, defined to be equal to the number of moles of a component divided by the total number of moles of a solution. Because it is a ratio, mole fraction is a unitless expression. The mole fraction of all components of a solution, when added together, will equal 1.



The solubility of a gas in the liquid is quantified using Henry's Law. Henry's Law states that the mole fraction of gas dissolved in the liquid (like the concentration) is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas over the liquid.

According to henry's law, the mole fraction of gas soluble in water is directly proportional to the pressure applied on the solution . As value of Kh increases mole fraction
