Question #68540

The activity of water at 11 bar and 298K is?

Expert's answer

The activity of water is the ratio of the vapor pressure of solution to vapor pressure of pure water at the same temperature:
aw=p/p0
In this case we have pure water, without any solute. That is why p and p0 remain to be the same at 298K. This means that aw leads to 1.
