Detailed Solution

We know that Henry’s law states that the amount of gas that is dissolved in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas above the liquid when the temperature is kept constant.

P  C (or)  

P = kH.C

where P= Partial pressure 

          KH= Henry's constant

          C= Concentration 

And we also know that different gases have different Henry’s laws constant in different solvents

Therefore statement 1 is true.

Now,P=kHC

And  KH=PC

Therefore KH is inversely proportional to C.

But Concentration is directly proportional to solubility.

Thus, Statement 2 is also true.

and statement 3 is also true.

But statement 4 is false.

Hence option(d) is correct.
