Solution

The correct option is B Solubility of a gas decreases with rise in temperature
The solubility of a gas decreases with rising temperatures. According to Charle's law, as we increase temperature, the volume of a given mass of gas dissolved in solution increases.

Hence, water cannot accommodate gas in it and the gas bubbles out.

So, the correct option is $B$
