Chapter 10, Problem 10.62QP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The effect of change in temperature and pressure in the carbonation process is to be stated.

Concept introduction: Henry’s law states that the concentration or solubility of a gas dissolved in a given solvent at a given temperature is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas.

This is given by,

$C_{gas}=k_{gas}\times p_{gas}$

Where,

• $C_{gas}$ is the concentration of a gas.
• $k_{gas}$ is Henry’s constant.
• $p_{gas}$ is a partial pressure of a gas.

To determine: The effect on the carbonation process if the temperature was changed from $\text{25}\text{°C}$ to $10\text{°C}$.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The effect on the carbonation process if the temperature was kept constant but the pressure was doubled.
