The solubility of CO2 in water at 25 degrees Celsius and P CO2= 1 atm is 0.034 mol/L. What is its water solubility under normal atmospheric conditions (in air, carbon dioxide is about 380 ppmv assuming that CO2 obeys Henry's Law?

solubility is directly proporional to partial pressure.
Partial pressue of CO2: 1atm(380/1E6)

solubiliy: .034mol/L * 380*1E-6
= 1.25E-5 mol/liter
= .0000125 mol/liter
