a) (2 pts) What is the concentration of Ar in surface seawater at 0°C, if the Henry’s Law constant for Ar at this temperature is 0.0014 mol/kg/atm, and the fraction of Ar in air is 0.0093? Assume a total air pressure of 1 atm. Assume 1kg seawater =1000cm3
b) (2 pts) What is the Feq (flux at equilibrium) of Ar into the seawater (in mmol/cm2/sec) at equilibrium (input of gas = output of gas)? The diffusion of Ar in seawater is 2 x 10-5 cm2/sec, and the stagnant boundary layer thickness is 40 µm.
c) (2 pts) What is the piston velocity (or invasion rate) of Ar into the ocean?
