Which change lowers the solubility of CO₂ in a sealed soda bottle?
A.Warming the bottle
B.Increasing CO₂ pressure above the liquid
C.Cooling the bottle
D.Shaking the bottle
Explanation
Core Concept
Gas solubility falls as temperature rises — molecules escape the liquid faster. Pressure changes in the opposite direction: more CO₂ pressure pushes more gas into solution (Henry's law).
Correct Answer
AWarming the bottle
