Dear Chegg, I need help with following environmental chemistry / earth science oral exam question in detail and hope that someone can help me, so I can prepare myself extra good for the exam:
3. Explain the solvation of CO2 (carbon dioxide) in water (normal and effective Henry's law coefficients) and the carbon cycle.
(Anything like reaction schemes, references and everything that's good and can be shown at the exam.. I would love to have them and therefore I hope someone can include it to the answer) Dear Chegg, I need help with following environmental chemistry / earth science oral exam question in detail and hope that someone can help me, so I can prepare myself extra good for the exam:

Explanation / Answer

In thermodynamic equilibrium, gaseous carbon dioxide CO2(g), and CO2 are related by Henry’s law:

CO2(g) = [CO2], with K( temperature and salintiy dependent solubility coefficient of CO2 in seawater). https://judithcurry.com/2013/07/19/ocean-acidification-discussion-thread/
