The correct answer is:
B $\gt$ C $\gt$ A
Value of Henry's law constant $\propto \frac{1}{\text { Solubility of gas }}$
Higher the value of $\mathrm{K}_H$ at a given pressure, lower is the solubility of the gas in the liquid.
$\mathrm{K}_H$ value of gases (given) : $\mathrm{A}\gt\mathrm{C}\gt\mathrm{B}$
$\therefore \quad$ Order of solubility of gases in water : $\mathrm{B}\gt\mathrm{C}\gt\mathrm{A}$
