Why do gases always tend to be less soluble in liquids as the temperature is raised?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Gas + liquids Dissolving gas, `DeltaH=-ve`
Dissolution of gas is an exothermic process. As the temperature is raised, the equilibrium shifts in reverse direction (Le-Chatelier’s principle). It results in decrease of solubility of gases in liquid.
