Dissolution of solids in water can be exothermic or endothermic process but gases dissolve in water always with the evolution of heat. Dissolution of a substance in water can be either because ion dipole interactions or by hydrogen bond formation. Pressure plays a significant role on the solubility to gases in water. Solubility of a gas in terms of mol fraction is related to pressure according to the mathematical relation
On the basic of above paragraph answer the following questions.
When a pinch of salt is added to a freshly opened bottle of cocacola or limca, a lot of effervescence occurs with evolution of a colourless gas
(a)The gas evolved is
(b)The gas evolved is
(c)There is no evolution of gas only decomposition of occurs
(d) is evolved due to its displacement from aerated soft drink
