What is the unit of Henry's law constant?
The unit of Henry's law constant (kH) depends on the units of the partial pressure of the gas and the concentration of the gas in the liquid phase. If the partial pressure of the gas is in atmospheres (atm) and the concentration of the gas in the liquid phase is in moles per liter (M), then the units of kH are: L·atm/mol If the partial pressure of the gas is in pascals (Pa) and the concentration of the gas in the liquid phase is in moles per cubic meter (mol/m³), then the units of kH are: m³·Pa/mol
A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more components in which the particle size is smaller than 1 nm.
For example, salt and sugar is a good illustration of a solution. A solution can be categorized into several components.
The solutions can be classified into three types:
On the basis of the amount of solute dissolved in a solvent, solutions are divided into the following types:
