Answer

a. The solubility of most solids, like sugar, is greater as temperature increases. b. According to Henry's Law, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is less at higher temperatures. The lower solubility makes the champagne go flat. c. Since the solubility of gases is lower at higher temperatures, there is more gas outside the liquid in the can, increasing its pressure. The higher pressure causes more spray.
