Question: Use the given data to calculate the modified Henry's law coefficients, p and a , for chlorine in PVC and in water at

Use the given data to calculate the modified Henry's law coefficients, αp and αa, for chlorine in PVC and in water at 25°C. When determining αp, 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.
