Henry's law constant for CO2 in water is 1.67 x 108Pa at 298 K. Calculate the quantity of CO2in 500 mL of soda water when packed under 2.5 atm CO2 pressure at 298 K.
It is given that:
KH = 1.67 × 108Pa
PCO2 = 2.5 atm = 2.5 × 1.01325 × 105Pa
= 2.533125 × 105Pa
According to Henry's law:
PCO2 = KHX
⇒ x = PCO2 / KH
= 2.533125 × 105 / 1.67 × 108
= 0.00152
We can write, 
[Since, is negligible as compared to]
In 500 mL of soda water, the volume of water = 500 mL
[Neglecting the amount of soda present]
We can write:
500 mL of water = 500 g of water
=500 / 18 mole of water
= 27.78 mol of water
Now, nCO2 / nH2O = x
nCO2 / 27.78 = 0.00152
nCO2 = 0.042 mol
Hence, quantity of CO2 in 500 mL of soda water = (0.042 × 44) g
= 1.848 g
The reaction between A and B is first order with respect to A and zero order with respect to B. Fill in the blanks in the following table:
| Experiment |
A/ mol L - 1 |
B/ mol L - 1 |
Initial rate/mol L - 1 min - 1 |
| I | 0.1 | 0.1 |
2.0 × 10 - 2 |
| II | -- | 0.2 |
4.0 × 10 - 2 |
| III | 0.4 | 0.4 | -- |
| IV | -- | 0.2 |
2.0 × 10 - 2 |

This question is important because it tests key concepts from the NCERT syllabus and is frequently asked in CBSE exams.
This question is based on core NCERT concepts explained in the chapter and should be revised thoroughly before exams.
It is given that:
KH = 1.67 × 108Pa
PCO2 = 2.5 atm = 2.5 × 1.01325 × 105Pa
= 2.533125 × 105Pa
According to Henry's law:
PCO2 = KHX
⇒ x = PCO2 / KH
