At a given temperature, the volume of a gas dissolved in a solvent __________ with increase in pressure.

A Increases
B Decreases
C Remains unchanged
D May increase or decrease; depends on the gas

Correct Answer: Remains unchanged

According to Henrys law the solubility increases with increase in pressure at a particular temperature and the relation is
$$S = H * P$$
Where :
$$S$$ = solubility
$$H$$ = henrys constant
$$P$$ = pressure.
