1 (b)] This will increase the number of
gaseous particles per unit volume over the solution and also the rate
at which the gaseous particles are striking the surface of solution to
enter it The solubility of the gas will increase until a new equilibrium
is reached resulting in an increase in the pressure of a gas above the
solution and thus its solubility increases Henry was the first to give a
quantitative relation between
pressure and solubility of a gas in
a solvent which is known as
Henry’s law
