Best Answer

Most solutes dissolve better in warm water because the molecules of warm water move faster, so the water molecules and the solute come in contact more often.

For solid solutes, it is generally true that you can dissolve more in warm water than cold water (though I'm not sure the above answer states the reason for this correctly). But gasses generally dissolve better in cold water.

Do solids dissolve better in hot or cold water?

Dissolving is caused by the small rapid movements of the atoms or molecules. The faster they are moving, the better substances dissolve. As the molecules have more energy and therefore move faster in hot water, substances dissolve better there.

Why does hot water hold more dissolved solids than cold water?

the molecules are moving around faster and are more spread out, therefore leaving room to dissolve more solutes. Cold water molecules are moving slow and are close together.
