15482276374931609873616.jpg At 760 Torr pressure and 20 c temperature 1L of water dissolve 0.04 of pure oxygen or 0.02 gm of pure nitrogen. Assuming that dry air is composed of 20 % oxygen and 80% nitrogen (by volume), the masses(in g/L) of oxygen and nitrogen dissolved by 1L of water at 20 c exposed to air at a total pressure 760 torr are:-

Mass of oxygen = 0.04*(20/100)
= 0.008g/L
Mass of nitrogen=0.02*(80/100)
= 0.016g/L
