Solution

The correct option is B proportional
The solubility of a gas in liquid and the pressure of the gas are directly proportional. When pressure of the gas decreases, the solubility of a gas in liquid decrease.
Hence, when we open the cold drink bottle, the pressure decreases which decreases the solubility of gas due to which the gas bubbles out.
