Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12

The Henry's law constant for O₂ dissolved in water is 4.34 × 10⁴ atm at certain temperature. If the partial pressure of O₂ in a gas mixture that is in equilibrium with water is 0.434 atm, what is the mole fraction of O₂ in the solution?

A

1 × 10⁻⁵

B

1 × 10⁻⁴

C

2 × 10⁻⁵

D

1 × 10⁻⁶

Correct Answer

Option 1

Detailed Explanation

Using Henry's law: mole fraction = partial pressure / Henry's constant = 0.434 / 4.34 × 10⁴.
