What is the concentration of dissolved carbon dioxide in a sealed 1L bottle under a 1.25 atm pressure.(Henry's Law constant for carbon dioxide is 29.4 L*atm/mol. )
A)0.04 M
B)0.8 M
C)23.52 M
D)36.75 M

Question

Using Henry's Law, $C = \frac{P}{k}$, where $C$ is the concentration, $P$ is the pressure, and $k$ is Henry's Law constant. Substituting the given values, $C = \frac{1.25 \, \text{atm}}{29.4 \, \text{L*atm/mol}} = 0.0425 \, \text{M}$, which rounds to 0.04 M.
