The solubility of a gas in water is 0.16g/l at 104 kpa. what is the solubility when the pressure of the gas is increased to 288 kpa? assume the temperature remains constant.

new solubility = 0.443 g/l

Explanation:
To solve this question, we will use Henry's law.
Henry's law states that, at constant temperature:
S1 / P1 = S2 / P2

We are given that:
S1 = 0.16 g/l
P1 = 104 kPa
S2 is the solubility we want to calculate
P2 = 288 kPa

Substitute with the givens in the above relation to get the new solubility (S2) as follows:
0.16 / 104 = S2 / 288
S2 = (0.16/104) * 288
S2 = 0.443 g/l

Hope this helps :)
