Henry's Law constant (water solution)

kH(T) = H exp(d(ln(kH))/d(1/T) ((1/T) - 1/(298.15 K)))
H = Henry's law constant for solubility in water at 298.15 K (mol/(kg*bar))
d(ln(kH))/d(1/T) = Temperature dependence constant (K)

H (mol/(kg*bar)) d(ln(kH))/d(1/T) (K) Method Reference Comment
2.5×10+9/KA9800.TN/AFor strong acids, the solubility is often expressed as kH = ([H+] * [A-]) / p(HA). To obtain the physical solubility of HA, the value has to be divided by the acidity constant KA. missing citation corrects erroneous data from missing citation.

Notes

1Broad absorption peak (width ~4500 cm-1). 31
2First member of a Rydberg series converging to X 2 Π1/2 (v=0) of HI+ (I.P. = 11.05 eV); fragments of additional series. 32
3Average B and D, B(2+) - B(2-)= -0.05.
4Average of B value, B(1+) - B(1-) = +0.240.
5Refers to the 1+ component; B(1-) ~ 6.25.
6Constants refer to the 0+ component; for 0- B0 = 6.091, v00 = 69149.5.
7Additional unclassified absorption bands between 68100 and 69000 cm-1.
8missing note
9Vibrational numbering uncertain; the numbers given refer to the lowest level observed in absorption for which v is probably fairly high. Several higher vibrational levels have been found; strong perturbations.
10B1 = 5.62, D1= 28E-4, perturbed at high J.
11Average B and D, B(2+) - B(2-) = -0.040.
12Average B and D, B(3+) - B(3-) = +0.018.
13Very diffuse feature.
14Diffuse feature.
15B1(3Π2)= -5.923.
16Diffuse, no rotational structure.
17From v=0, 1, 3 only; γre = -0.0317.
18Diffuse Q head only.
19(v=1 diffuse Q head)
20Continuous absorption starting at ~28000 with maximum at ~46000 cm-1.
21Photofragment spectroscopy at 37550 cm-1 Clear, Riley, et al., 1975 shows that the continuum is of composite nature; 36% of the absorption is due to 3Π0+ yielding H + I(2P1/2). Clear, Riley, et al., 1975 have analyzed the continuum in terms of three overlapping transitions 1Π, 3Π0+, 3Π1 ← X. A very weak continuum with maximum at 23500 cm-1 was reported by Datta and Kundu, 1941.
22weze = +0.01621, from the 1-0,...,4-0 vibrational-rotational bands Hurlock, Alexander, et al., 1971; very slightly different constants are given by Bernage, Niay, et al., 1974 who have measured the 5-0 and 6-0 bands.
23Microwave value De Lucia, Helminger, et al., 1971.
24Dunham potential coefficients Ogilvie and Koo, 1976.
25γe from Hurlock, Alexander, et al., 1971, see 22.
26Rot.-vib. sp. 34
27Rotation sp. 35 36
28Raman sp. 37
29From D00(H2), D00(I2), and ΔHf0(HI, from gaseous H2,I2).
30From photoionization studies by Watanabe, Nakayama, et al., 1962; refers to X 2Π3/2 of HI+. Lempka, Passmore, et al., 1968 give the same value, Frost, McDowell, et al., 1967 give 10.42 eV from the photoelectron spectrum.
31Diffuse on account of predissociation and preionization; presumably first member of a Rydberg series converging to A 2Σ+ of HI+ Terwilliger and Smith, 1975.
32Above the first ionization limit (X 2Π3/2) the members of the series are subject to preionization and are seen as photoionization peaks Tsai and Baer, 1974.
33Average B and D, B(1+) - B(1-) = +0.107.
34The 1-0,...,6-0 bands have been observed in absorption. Absolute intensities, dipole moment function Ameer and Beneschi, 1962, Benesch, 1963, Meyer, Haeusler, et al., 1965, Jacobi, 1967, Tipping and Forbes, 1971. The R branch of the fundamental is much stronger than the P branch on account of rotation-vibration interaction; for the overtones this effect is very small Benesch, 1963, Meyer, Haeusler, et al., 1965. The overall intensities decrease rather slowly in the series 1-0, 2-0, 3-0 Benesch, 1963, Meyer, Haeusler, et al., 1965. Line width, pressure broadening studied by Ameer and Beneschi, 1962, Meyer, Haeusler, et al., 1965.
35From the hfs of the microwave spectrum Van Dijk and Dymanus, 1968 derive nuclear quadrupole (I) and other hyperfine coupling constants; see also De Lucia, Helminger, et al., 1971. From the Stark effect in the hfs of the 1-0 transition van Dijk and Dymanus, 1970 obtain μel(v=0) = 0.4477.
36Absolute intensities Chamberlain and Gebbie, 1965.
37Vibrational Raman cross sections.
