Answer:

Henry's law

Explanation:

This relationship between partial pressure and solubility is explained in Henry's law. Henry's law states that pressure is directly proportional to solubility. That is, the higher the pressure, the higher the solubility.

The drop in solubility of nitrogen with regards to a drop in pressure is in accordance to Henry's law.
