WildTangent Game fo Signed in as Rachel Belmont He s previous 8 of9n Correct rt B As a scuba diver descends under water, the pressure increases At a total air pressure of 2 81 atm and a temperature of 250 C, what is the solubility of N2 in a diver's blood? [Use the value of the Henry's law constant k calculated in Part A 6.26 × 10-4 mol/ (L-atm) ! Assume that the composition of the air in the tank is the same as on land and that all of the dissolved nitrogen remains in the blood Express your answer with the appropriate units solubilityVau Hints icffseta net 640 A 8

Explanation / Answer

According to Henry's law,

Solubility = k Pressure , k = Henry's law constant

C = kP

GIven that k = 6.26 x 10-4 mol/L/atm

P = 2.81 atm

Hence,

C = kP = (6.26 x 10-4 mol/L/atm) (2.81 atm) = 17.59 x 10-4 mol/L

Therefore,

Solubility of N2 in a divers blood = 17.59 x 10-4 mol/L
