Abstract
Pressure dependence gas solubilities of sparingly soluble gases like n itrogen, hydrogen, oxygen, carbon monoxide and nitrous oxide in water at 25 degrees have been calculated with the help of thermodynamic func tions using a statistical method of curve fitting. The approximate pre ssure ranges are : N-2 (25-120 atm), H-2 (25-120. atm), O-2 (10-90 atm ), CO (25-105 atm) and NO (10-105 atm). The solubility data are analys ed in terms of Kirkwood-Buff solution theory, and the role of hydropho bic interactions is discussed.
