Q2medium

Which of the following statements is INCORRECT regarding the solubility of gases in liquids?

Q3easy

The partial pressure of ethane over a saturated solution containing 6.56×102,g6.56 \times 10^{-2},\text{g} of ethane is 1,bar1,\text{bar}. If the solution contains 5.00×102,g5.00 \times 10^{-2},\text{g} of ethane, then what will be the partial pressure of the gas (in bar) if the temperature remains the same?
