NEET Chemistry Raoult's Law MCQ Question
What happens to the solubility of gases in a solvent when the pressure over the solution phase is increased?
The solubility of the gas increases.
The solubility of the gas decreases.
The solubility of the gas remains unchanged.
The gas escapes from the solution.
