Gen Chem, Factors Affecting Solubility
1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
Calculate the mass of nitrogen dissolved at room temperature in an 80.0L home aquarium. Assume a total pressure of 1.0 atm and a mole fraction for nitrogen of .78. 2. Relevant equations Mole fraction= moles solute/moles solution Sgas=KH x Pgas KH = 6.1 x 10-4 M/atm 3. The attempt at a solution Sgas = (6.1 x 10-4)(1 atm) Sgas = 6.1 x 10-4 6.1 x 10-4/ 1 L x 80.0 L = 4.88 x 10-2 moles (4.88 x 10-2 moles) x 28.02 g Ns/ 1 mol = 1.37 g N2 the correct answer is 1.1 g N2 Where did I go wrong and where does the mole fraction bit come into play? Thanks! 1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data 2. Relevant equations 3. The attempt at a solution |
