The solubility of oxygen is

Question

The solubility of oxygen is (A) 20-25 times higher than carbon dioxide (B) 20-25 times lower than carbon dioxide (C) 10-15 times higher than carbon dioxide (D) 10-15 times lower than carbon dioxide

Oxygen is 20-25 less soluble than carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide when dissolves in water interacts with surrounding water molecules to hydrate itself and thus the interactions are very strong to dissolve more and more molecules.
