When Chemicals Meet Water
Description
Solution chemistry provides tools to measure the concentration of components of solutions, like the CO2 levels in ocean water. The majority of chemical reactions happen in solutions. For example, when we breathe, the nitrogen in the air dissolves in our blood. Henry's Law gives us the power to predict, prevent, and treat "the bends," a life-threatening condition that can happen to SCUBA divers when nitrogen in the blood comes out of solution and forms gas bubbles.
