(density of water = 103 kg m-3 at 298 K)
This table implies that :
- Asolubility of at 308 K is lower than at 298 K
- BThe pressure of a 55.5 molal solution of is 250 bar
- Chas the highest solubility in water at a given pressure
- DThe pressure of a 55.5 molal solution of is 1 bar

Correct answer: A, B
-
Use Henry’s law
For gases dissolved in water, where is the partial pressure of the gas, is Henry’s constant, and is mole fraction of dissolved gas.
Hence, at a given pressure, So, smaller means higher solubility.
-
Given values
-
Check option C
Since solubility is inversely proportional to , the gas with the smallest Henry’s constant has the highest solubility.
Among the given values, so has the highest solubility, not .
Therefore, Option C is false.
-
Check option A
Dissolution of gases in water generally decreases with increase in temperature, so Henry’s constant increases with temperature and solubility decreases.
Therefore, for , solubility at is lower than at .
So, Option A is true.
-
Check options B and D using 55.5 molal solution
A molal solution means:
- mol gas per water.
Number of moles of water in :
Thus, moles of solute gas and moles of water .
So mole fraction of gas is approximately
More accurately, with mol water approximation used in such problems,
-
Option B: gas
Since we get
Therefore, Option B is true.
-
Option D: gas
Convert to bar:
This is not .
Therefore, Option D is false.
-
Final result
Correct options are:
-
Comparison with stored answer
Stored correct answer:
This matches exactly.
