Question

Question 1 10 pts At a winery in Missouri, sparkling wine is made by adding carbon dioxide to chilled wine. The CO2 is maintained at a pressure of 4.32 atm (absolute) and 40.0°F. According to Perry's handbook, the solubility of CO2 in water is approximately 0.01238 kg CO2/kg H20 at these conditions. Estimate the Henry's law constant in units of atm/mol fraction. You may assume that the vapor phase is pure CO2. Data: MW of CO2 is 44.01 and MW of H2O is 18.016
