Answer: See (a) and (b) below.

(a) Henry's law: The solubility of a gas in a liquid at constant temperature is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas above the solution: \(S = K_H P\), where \(K_H\) is Henry's law constant.

(b) Osmotic pressure: The osmotic pressure of a solution is the excess hydrostatic pressure that must be applied on the solution side to just stop osmosis, i.e. the flow of solvent molecules into the solution through a semipermeable membrane. \(\pi = MRT\).
