Knowledge of gas solubility can save lives

Authors Iwona Misztal - Regional Office of Measures in Katowice (Okręgowy Urząd Miar w Katowicach)

Abstract

The article is about Henry's law on the solubility of gases in liquids depending on pressure and temperature. Knowing the Henry's constant plays a very important role in the breathing process, for example when you are diving or in the production of sodas. For 200 years, knowledge of gas solubility had saved lives.
