Solution

The correct option is C more gas will dissolve in that liquid
Henrys Law:
It states that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the pressure of that gas.
C=K×Pgas
When a pressure is slowly applied to a gas that is capable of dissolving a liquid, then more gas will dissolve in that liquid.
