A. Increases
B. Decreases
C. Remains unchanged
D. May increase or decrease; depends on the gas
Answer: Option C

According to Henrys law the solubility increases with increase in pressure at a particular temperature and the relation is$$S = H * P$$
Where :
$$S$$ = solubility
$$H$$ = henrys constant
$$P$$ = pressure.
