State Henry's law. Calculate the solubility of CO2 in water at 298K under 760‌mm‌Hg.
( KH for CO2 in water at 298K is 1.25×106‌mm‌Hg )
Solution:  
Henry's law: The mass of a gas dissolved in a given volume of the liquid at a constant temperature depends upon the pressure which is applied.

KH‌ for ‌CO2=1.25×106‌mm‌Hg‌
xCO2‌=‌
‌ Partial pressure of ‌CO2
KH‌ for ‌CO2
=‌
760‌mm‌Hg
1.25×106‌mm‌Hg.

‌=608×10−6
Mole fraction represents the solubility of CO2 in water.
