Question
State Henry’s law. Write its one application. What is the effect of temperature on solubility of gases in liquid?

Answer

Henry’s law states that the mole fraction of gas in the solution is proportional to the partial pressure of the gas over the solution.
Applications: solubility of $CO_2$ gas in soft drinks/solubility of air diluted with helium in blood used by sea divers or any other.
Solubility of gas in liquid decreases with increase in temperature.
