Answer

$2.2\times 10^{-3}M/atm$

Work Step by Step

We know that $n_{Ar}=\frac{P_{Ar}V_{Ar}}{RT}$ $\implies n_{Ar}=\frac{1.0atm\space mol.K(0.0537L)}{(0.08206L.atm)(298.15K)}=2.1949\times 10^{-3}mol$ Now $S_{Ar}=\frac{n_{Ar}}{V_{soln}}$ $S_{Ar}=\frac{2.1949\times 10^{-3}mol}{1.0L}=2.1949\times 10^{-3}M$ We can calculate the Henry's law constant as $k_H=\frac{S_{Ar}}{P_{Ar}}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $k_H=\frac{2.1949\times 10^{-3}M}{1.0atm}=2.2\times 10^{-3}M/atm$
