Question

For p=K$_H$​x, here K$_H$​ is:

• A. Cryoscopic constant
• B. Henry’s Law constant
• C. Boyle’s constant
• D. Rate constant

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The equation p = K_Hx represents Henry's Law. In this equation:

• p is the partial pressure of the solute gas above the solution.
• x is the mole fraction of the solute gas in the solution.
• K_H is the Henry’s Law constant.

Henry's Law states that the solubility of a gas in a liquid at a constant temperature is directly proportional to its partial pressure. Therefore, K_H is the Henry’s Law constant.

Based on the provided options, the correct identification is: Henry’s Law constant.
