Henry's Law Calculator

🧪 Solutions & Molarity. Use the Henry's law formula to find dissolved gas, henry's constant, gas pressure: pick the value you want, type the others, and the answer updates as you go.

C=kPgasC = k P_{gas}

CO₂ in water: k ≈ 0.034 mol/(L·atm).

Dissolved gas0.034 mol/L

Pick the ○ next to the value you want to find, fill in the others, and it solves as you type.

Worked example

Find the dissolved gas when Henry's constant = 0.034 mol/(L·atm), Gas pressure = 1 atm.

Using C = k Pgas: Dissolved gas = 0.034 mol/L.

Frequently asked questions

What is the formula for Henry's law?

C = k Pgas. CO₂ in water: k ≈ 0.034 mol/(L·atm).

What do the letters stand for, and what units are used?

Dissolved gas in mol/L, Henry's constant in mol/(L·atm), Gas pressure in atm.

How do you calculate dissolved gas?

Put the values into C = k Pgas. For example, with Henry's constant = 0.034 mol/(L·atm), Gas pressure = 1 atm, dissolved gas = 0.034 mol/L.

Can I solve for a different value?

Yes. In the calculator above, pick the circle next to any value (dissolved gas, henry's constant, gas pressure) and fill in the others: it rearranges the formula for you.
