A formula for Henry's Law is: : where:
Taking the Natural Logarithm of the formula, gives us the more commonly used formula: : This version is used to showcase the effectiveness of the law for dilute solutions of gases that don't react with the solvent. Some values for ''k'' include:
when these gases are dissolved in Water at 299 Kelvin s. Note that the solubility coefficient varies with solvent and temperature. Henry's law in Geophysics A version of Henry's law applies to the solubility of a Noble Gas in contact with Silicate melt. One equation used is : |
