From the Ea, (i) it can be concluded that higher the value of K yy ata

Applications of Henry's Law
Henry's law finds several applications in industries. It also
explains many biological phenomena.
These are as follows
{i In the production of carbonated beverages To increase the
solubility of CO, in soft drinks and soda water, the bottle is
sealed under high pressure
(ii) In deep sea diving, Scuba divers (deep-sea divers) breath air
at high pressure under water. Increased pressure increases th

To avoid bends, as well as, the toxic effects of high
concentrations of nitrogen in the blood, the tanks used by
scuba divers are filled wich air diluted with helium (11.7%
helium, 56.2% nitrogen and 32,1% oxygen)
