If a bottled drink is warmed, what may happen to the dissolved gas in it?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Gas may tend to come out
Warming generally lowers the solubility of gases in liquids, so dissolved carbon dioxide tends to leave the drink. If the bottle is closed, pressure may also rise; on opening, gas can escape rapidly as bubbles. Therefore A is correct. The other options describe chemical or physical changes that do not follow from warming a drink.
