Soft drinks are canned under 4 atm of CO₂ and release CO₂ when opened.(a) How many moles of CO₂ are dissolved in a 355-mL can of soda before it is opened?

Respuesta :

moles of CO₂ are dissolved in a 355-mL can of soda before it is opened is 0.047 mol

a) Given,

Pressure of Carbon Dioxide= 4atm

Volume of Can of soda=355ml

Henry's Constant of CO₂ = 3.3 ×10² mol/L.atm

Now,

We know that

C = [tex]k_{H}[/tex] ×P

where

C= concentration of CO₂

C= 3.3 ×10² mol/L.atm×4atm

Hence ,

Concentration of CO₂= 0.132 mol/L

Given

Volume of soda = 355ml=0.355L

Hence,

 No. of moles of Carbon Dioxide =  0.132 mol/L×0.355L

                                                        =  0.047 mol

                                                     

From the above conclusion we can say that, moles of CO₂ are dissolved in a 355-mL can of soda before it is opened is 0.047 mol
