Sketch a curve to show how the solubility of a gas varies with increasing temperature
Solubility of a gas against temperature
For a gas dissolved in water, solubility decreases as temperature increases. Heating gives gas particles more kinetic energy, so they escape from the liquid more easily.
Examination point: label the horizontal axis as temperature and the vertical axis as solubility, then draw a smooth downward-sloping curve.
