At 25°c the henry's law constant for nitrogen trifluoride (nf3) gas in water is 7.9 * 10-4 m/atm. what is the mass of nf3 gas that can be dissolved in 150 ml of water at 25°c and an nf3 partial pressure of 1.71 atm?

    For this problem, we should use the Henry's Law formula which is written below:

    P = kC

    where

    P is the partial pressure of the gas

    k is the Henry's Law constant at a certain temperature

    C is the concentration

    Substituting the values,

    1.71 atm = (7.9*10⁻⁴ / atm) C

    Solving for C,

    C = 2164.56 molal or 2164.56 mol/kgwater

    Let's make use of density of water (1 kg/1 m³) and the molar mass of NF₃ (71 g/mol).

    Mass of NF ₃ = 2164.56 mol/kg water * 1 kg/1 m³ * 1 m³/1000000 mL * 150 mL * 71 g/mol = 23.05 g
