Which of the following is incorrect regarding Henry's law?
Show Hint
- Gas reacts with solvent chemically.
- Pressure and concentrations are not too high.
- Temperature is not too low.
- Gas does not change its molecular state in solution i.e., neither dissociates nor associates.
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Henry's law states that the amount of gas dissolved in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas above the liquid, provided that the gas does not react with the solvent and that conditions such as pressure and temperature are not extreme.
Thus, the correct answer is: \( \text{(1) Gas reacts with solvent chemically.} \)
Top Questions on Raoult’s Law and Henry’s Law
A binary mixture of benzene and toluene under vapour-liquid equilibrium at 80 \( ^\circ {C} \) follows ideal Raoult’s law. At this condition, the saturation pressures of benzene and toluene are 101 kPa and 40 kPa, respectively. If the mole fraction of benzene in the liquid phase is 0.6, the corresponding mole fraction of benzene in the vapour phase will be ________. (Round off to two decimal places)
