Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
The property of a substance to dissolve in a liquid is called its solubility. The substances that dissolve or mix completely in water are said to be soluble, and those that do not dissolve or mix completely in water are said to be insoluble. Some gases are soluble in water, like oxygen and carbon dioxide. These gases are necessary for the survival of plants and animals living in the water. On the other hand, some gases are insoluble in water, like methane and nitrogen. So, not all gases are soluble in water, some are soluble like oxygen, and some are insoluble like nitrogen.
The correct statement would be that all gases do not dissolve in water.
