Explanation / Answer

Ans 10 : B) increasing the pressure of the gas above the solvent

According to Henry's Law , the solubility of gas is directly proportional to the pressure of gas above the solvent.

When the pressure is increased , the gas molecules are forced inside the solvent which increases its solubility in the solvent.
