Use the given data to calculate the modified Henry's law coefficients, p and a ,

Use the given data to calculate the modified Henry's law coefficients, α_p and α_a, for chlorine in PVC and in water at 25°C. When determining α_p, plot the solubility data to make sure that the Henry's law correlation is valid, and use the method of least squares to force a fit through the origin to obtain the slope of the plot.

This problem deal with the chlorine absorber, depicted in the following flowchart.
