How many grams of carbon dioxide for 2 liters of 40 degree water at 35 psi?

[wolfgang kern]

The calculations never troubled me before today because it just works.

But I'm suddenly tasked with manning the carbonation science booth for at
the local neighborhood summer block party and I want to have at least some
basic mathematical "science" behind me on the paperboard descriptions.

I'll be having the kids evacuate the air out of 2-1/2 liter soda bottles
filled to only 2 liters of 40 degrees Fahrenheit water and then thety will
carbonate to about 30 psi but I don't know how many grams of CO2 that is.

Where can I find that calculation given 100% partial pressure of CO2?

1/2 liter of 30psi CO2 for 2 liters of H2O is not going to make very
carbonated water, unless that 30psi is maintained for a significant
time, like hours, unless broken into very fine bubbles as it is put into
the bottles. For my corny kegs, I have to add CO2 many times over
several days to get it properly carbonated, or I have to leave the CO2
tank valve open for hours.

1 liter at 30 psi is about 2 liters of CO2 at atmospheric pressure. Most
of that pressure will go away by the time the CO2 is dissolved in the water.
