Solubility of a substance which dissolves with an increase in volume and liberation of heat will be favoured by the

A Low pressure and high temperature
B Low pressure and low temperature
C High pressure and low temperature
D High pressure and high temperature

Correct Answer: Low pressure and low temperature

Given process is solubility of a particular component in an solution and it is increasing with increase in volume so, physically we can say it decreases with pressure because under decreasing pressure the volume of solution increases and the process is exothermic given. So, by Le Chatelier's principle we can say the process is favored by taking out or decreasing the temperature.
