confusion in henrys law
partial pressure of gas = henry's constant * mole fraction of gas
solubility = henry's constant * partial pressure of gas
solubilty = (henry constant)^2 * mole fraction of gas
are all 3 statements correct ??

Note for OP
+solved @user1 @user2... to close the thread when your doubt is solved. Mention the users who helped you solve the doubt. This will be added to their stats.1 and 2 are the same right? with diff values of henrys constant (dimensions)

Henry's law
In physical chemistry, Henry's law is a gas law that states that the amount of dissolved gas in a liquid is directly proportional at equilibrium to its partial pressure above the liquid. The proportionality factor is called Henry's law constant. It was formulated by the English chemist William Henry, who studied the topic in the early 19th centu...
always keep units in consideration while writing down relations like this.
oh so there are multiple henry constants
apparently yeah, i asked the exact same doubt a few weeks ago
but from jee pov i think the first one is mainly followed
yes, Henry's Constant is just like a constant that's used to show proportionality between two things like solubility and partial pressure or partial pressure and mole fraction (mostly), and it's not like an actual fixed constant like Coulomb's Constant in electromagnetism or like the G in the universal law of gravitation
got it ppl
thanx
