Question

Variation of solubility with temperature \(T\) for a gas in liquid is shown by the following graphs. The correct representation is 

• A. 1
• B. 2
• C. 3
• D. 4

Hint:

When dealing with solubility of gases, remember that increased temperature leads to decreased solubility because of the increased energy of the gas molecules.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The solubility of a gas in a liquid typically decreases with an increase in temperature. This is because, as temperature rises, the kinetic energy of the gas molecules increases, making them more likely to escape the solution. Therefore, the solubility of gases in liquids generally decreases as the temperature increases, which is represented by the graph in option 2.
