A student states: 'More the pressure of a gas over a liquid, more gas is dissolved.' This statement is an application of
ARaoult's law
BHenry's law
CDalton's law of partial pressures
DGraham's law of diffusion
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Henry's law
The statement describes the increase in solubility of a gas with its pressure above the liquid, which is the essence of Henry's law.
