Answer

According to the table, the solubility of Xe in water is higher than the solubilities of Ar and Kr in water.

Work Step by Step

The solubility of Ar in water at 1 atm pressure and at 20$^{\circ}$C is $1.5\times10^{-3}M$, while the solubility of Kr (under the same conditions) is $2.79\times10^{-3}M$. Both these solubilites are lower than the solubility of Xe under the same conditions ($5\times10^{-3}M$), meaning that Xe has a higher solubility than Ar and Kr in water under similar conditions.
