Solution
Solubility of gas in liquid decreases with increase in Temperature.
Explanation:
The kinetic energy increases as the temperature rises. Because of the increased kinetic energy, the gas molecules move more, breaking intermolecular bonds and allowing the molecules to escape from the solution. As a result, the solubility of a gas reduces as the temperature rises.
