Question

According to kinetic theory and thermodynamics, Henry's law ($P = K_H \chi$) exhibits limitations and is valid strictly under specific conditions. Identify the correct conditions for its validity.

Prashant Kotian · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: A,B,D. Henry's law assumes ideal gas behavior. Extremely high pressures or very low temperatures cause deviations from ideality. Furthermore, chemical reactions, association, or dissociation in the solvent alter the number of dissolved particles, invalidating the simple relationship.
