Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an important greenhouse gas with a Henry volatility constant of 3.3x104 mol/m3/Pa at 25°C. The enthalpy of dissolution is 2400 K. Two hundred years ago, the atmospheric CO2 level was 0.025%. Today's CO2 level is 0.04%. Calculate the change in ocean concentration (aqueous) from 1822 to 2022 at 25°C in mg/L.
