प्रश्न
Why do gases always tend to be less soluble in liquids as the temperature is raised?
उत्तर १
The solubility of a gas in a liquid at a particular temperature is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas in equilibrium with the liquid at that temperature. The dissolution of a gas in a liquid is an exothermic process, that is, it is accompanied by the evolution of heat. Thus,
\[\ce{Gas + Solvent <=> Solution + Heat}\]
Applying Le Chatelier’s principle, the increase of temperature would shift the equilibrium in the backward direction, that is, solubility would decrease. Therefore, gases always tend to be less soluble in liquids as the temperature is raised.
उत्तर २
When gases are dissolved in water, it is accompanied by a release of heat energy, i.e., the process is exothermic. When the temperature is increased, according to Lechatlier’s Principle, the equilibrium shifts in a backward direction, and thus, gases become less soluble in liquids.
