Solubility of pure gases like

O Ar - Argon
O CH4 - Methane
O C2H4 - Ethylene
O C2H6- Ethane
O CO - Carbon Monoxide
O CO2 - Carbon Dioxide
O Cl2 - Chlorine Gas
O H2 - Hydrogen Gas
O H2S - Hydrogen Sulfide
O He - Helium
O 2 - itrogen
O H3 - Ammonia
O O2 - Oxygen
O SO2 - Sulfur Dioxide
in water at one atmosphere (101.325 kPa) and different
temperatures are indicated in the diagrams below.
Note that for gases in combination with other gases -
like oxygen in air - the partial pressure of the gas must be
used. Ex. in air with normal composition oxygen counts for
aprox. 20% of the total pressure.

Ar Argon has approximately the
same solubility in water as oxygen gas and is
2.5 times more soluble in water than
nitrogen gas
