Henry's law states that the amount of gas that dissolves in a liquid is proportional to its partial pressure in the gas phase and its solubility; as partial pressure increases, more gas dissolves.
La ley de Henry establece que la cantidad de gas que se disuelve en un líquido es proporcional a su presión parcial y solubilidad, es decir, a mayor presión parcial, mayor disolución.

| Back | Amount of gas that will dissolve in a liquid is proportional to its partial pressure in the gas phase and its solubility AKA: as you increase partial pressure of a gas, more of the gas will dissolve in fluid |
