Henry's constant (in $kbar$) for four gases $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$ and $\delta$ in water at $298 \ K$ is given below:
Gas $K_{H} \ (kbar)$
$\alpha$ $50$
$\beta$ $2$
$\gamma$ $2 \times 10^{-5}$
$\delta$ $0.5$

(Density of water $= 10^{3} \ kg \ m^{-3}$ at $298 \ K$). This table implies that:

  • A
    The pressure of a $55.5 \ m$ (molal) solution of $\gamma$ is $1 \ bar$.
  • B
    The pressure of a $55.5 \ m$ (molal) solution of $\delta$ is $250 \ bar$.
  • C
    Solubility of $\gamma$ at $308 \ K$ is lower than at $298 \ K$.
  • D
    $\alpha$ has the highest solubility in water at a given pressure.
