Enter your answer in the provided box. the partial pressure of co2 gas above the liquid in a bottle of champagne at 20°c is 4.5 atm. what is the solubility of co2 in champagne? assume the henry's law constant is the same for champagne as it is for water: at 20°c, kh = 3.7 × 10−2 mol/(l·atm).

The molar solubility of carbon dioxide gas is 0.17 M

Explanation:

Henry's law states that the amount of gas dissolved or molar solubility of gas is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the liquid.

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

where,

= Henry's constant =

= partial pressure of carbonated drink = 4.5 atm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the molar solubility of carbon dioxide gas is 0.17 M
