Henry’s law constant for the molality of methane in benzene at 298 K is 4.27 × 10⁵ mm Hg. Calculate the solubility of methane in benzene at 298 K under 760 mm Hg.

The air is a mixture of a number of gases. The major components are oxygen and nitrogen with approximate proportion of 20% is to 79% by volume at 298 K. The water is in equilibrium with air at a pressure of 10 atm. At 298 K if the Henry’s law constants for oxygen and nitrogen are 3.30 × 10⁷ mm and 6.51 × 10⁷ mm respectively, calculate the composition of these gases in water.
