Solubility of gases in liquids ______ with decrease in temperature. |
remains constant first decreases and then increases increases decreases |
increases |
The correct answer is option 3. increases. The solubility of gases in liquids generally increases with a decrease in temperature. This relationship is described by Henry's Law, which states that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas above the liquid and inversely proportional to the temperature. Therefore, as temperature decreases, the solubility of gases in liquids tends to increase. |
