Hydrogen dissolves in Pd by the reaction H2=2[H]. At 3000C and pH2= 1 atm, the solubility of hydrogen in Pd is 1.6× 104 mm3 (STP) per kg of Pd. At 3000C and pH2= 0.09 atm, the solubility of hydrogen in Pd in mm3 (STP) per kg of Pd is _______. (answer upto one decimal place)

See lessCorrect answer is 4920 mm3/kg. Given reaction: H2= 2[H] K= [H]2/ pH2 [H]∝ √pH2 Two cases arises in this question. Case 1: 1.64× 104 ∝ 1 Case 2: [H2]∝ √0.09 On dividing both the cases (i.e case1/case2) [H2]= 4920 mm3/kg
Correct answer is 4920 mm3/kg.
Given reaction: H2= 2[H]
K= [H]2/ pH2
[H]∝ √pH2
Two cases arises in this question.
Case 1: 1.64× 104 ∝ 1
Case 2: [H2]∝ √0.09
On dividing both the cases (i.e case1/case2)
[H2]= 4920 mm3/kg
