The solubility of noble gases in water shown the order

A

`He gt Ar gt Kr gt Na gt Xe`

B

`He gt Na gt Ar gt Kr gt Xe`

C

`Xe gt Kr gt Ar gt Na gt He`

D

none of above

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c
Solubility of noble gases in water is due to dipole-induced dipole interaction. As dipole induced dipole interaction increases with the increase of molecular mass of noble gases, hence solubility of noble gases in water increases down the group.
