Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Analyze a scenario where a pollutant is being transferred from a polluted river to the air. Given individual resistances R_water = 500 and R_air = 50, find the total resistance and discuss the implications for pollution control.
💡 Hint: Follow the resistance in series rule!
Using Henry's Law, estimate the concentration of a gas at equilibrium if the gas pressure is 2 atm, given that Henry's Law constant is 0.5 mol/(L·atm).
💡 Hint: Remember, it's all about how pressure influences concentration!
