answer

because water itself contains 1 molecule of oxygen already and when air is dissolved in water the percentage of oxygen increases as the oxygen present in air mixes with that of water .
hence the percentage of oxygen increases when air mixes with water.

hey
here's your answer!!

Since oxygen is more soluble in water compared to nitrogen the ar dissolved in water differs from ordinary air.

so, air dissolved in water contains higher proportion of oxygen.

Composition of air dissolved in water is 33% oxygen( compared to 21% in normal air) , 66% nitrogen and 1% carbon dioxide.

Hope it helps!!
