Question

The solubility of a gas in a solution is measured in three cases as shown in the figure given below where w is the weight of a solid slab placed on the top of the cylinder lid. The solubility will follow the order

• A. a > b > c
• B. a < b < c
• C. a = b = c
• D. a > b < c

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

a < b < c

As pressure is increased, solubility of gas in liquid increases.
