Variation of K(H) (Henry's law constant)...

Variation of `K_(H)` (Henry's law constant) with temperature T is shown by following graphs `I-IV`

correct representation is

A

`IV`

B

`III`

C

`I`

D

`II`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Partial pressure, `p=K_(H)chi`
If temperature is lowered, 8solubility of gases increases at a given pressure. Thus `K_(H)`increases with increase in temperature. It is due to this reason that aquatic species are more comfortable in cold water rather than in warm water.
