Solution and Explanation
Henry's Law:
Henry's law states that: The solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas above the liquid at constant temperature.
Mathematically: \[ C \propto P \quad \Rightarrow \quad C = k_H \cdot P \] where:
- \(C\) = concentration (or solubility) of the gas in the liquid
- \(P\) = partial pressure of the gas
- \(k_H\) = Henry’s law constant
