Answer:
(1) To minimise the painful effects accompanying the decomposition of deep sea divers, oxygen diluted with less soluble helium gas is used as breathing gas.
(2) To increase the solubility of CO2 in soft drinks and soda water, the bottle is sealed under high pressure.
In physical chemistry, Henry's law is a gas law that states that the amount of dissolved gas in a liquid is proportional to its partial pressure above the liquid. The proportionality factor is called Henry's law constant.
