Solution

The correct option is B Henry's law
Henry's law states that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas over the solution.

$P_{g a s} = K_{H} . S_{g a s}$

Where, $S$ is the solubility in moles per litre
$K_{H}$ is henry's law constant
$P$ is the pressure in atm.
Therefore, the correct option is (B).
