Calculate the mass of dissolved nitrogen at 25°C in an aquarium containing 73.4 L of water. Assume that the total pressure is 98 kPa and that the mole fraction of nitrogen in air is 0.78. It is recalled that the partial pressure of a gas in a gas mixture can be determined from the total pressure and its mole fraction (Dalton's Law).
