Assertion: The dissolution of ammonia in...

Assertion: The dissolution of ammonia in water does not follow henry's law.
Reason: Ammonia undergoes ionisation in water as
`NH_(3)+H_(2)O hArr NH_(4)^(+)+OH^(-)`

A

If both assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and Reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion

C

If assertion is true but reason is false

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Henry's law is applicable only for such gases which do not ionise in solvent, i.e., do not react with solvent.

The dissolution of ammonia gas in water does not obey Henry's law. On dissolving. a major portion of ammonia molecules unite with H_(2),O to form NH_(4),OH molecules. A portion of the latter again dissociates into NH_(4)^(+) , and OH^(-) ions. In solution thercfore, we have NH_(3) , molecules, NH_(4),OH molecules and NH_(4)^(+) , ions and the following equilibrium exist: NH_(3(g)) (pressure P and concentration c) rarr NH_(3(l)) + H_(2),Orarr NH_(4),OH rarr NH_(4)^(+) rarr,+OH^(-) Let c_(1) ,mol/L of NH_(3) , pass in liquid state which on dissolution in water forms c_(2) mol/ L of NH_(4),OH. The solution contains c_(3) mol/L of NH_(4)^(+) , ions. If P is the partial pressure of ammonia at equilibrium, then which of the following is constant?
