Detailed Solution

The value of Henry's constant KH​ is greater for gases with lower solubility because of the mathematical relation -

P=KHX KH=PX

where, KH​ represents Henry's constant, p is partial pressure of the gas in vapour phase, and x denotes mole fraction of the gas in solution.

Thus KH​ is inversely proportional to mole fraction of gas in solution (representing its solubility).
