What dessolves faster in water salt or baking soda?

Baking soda. Baking soda comes in a standard finely ground powder, whereas salt is available in a range of sizes from free-running salt for a salt shaker to salt flakes, to crystals of rock or sea salt to be used in a salt grinder. The bigger the crystals the longer they would take to dissolve. If a substance is finely ground is has, over all, a greater surface area exposed to the water so it will dissolve quicker. The hotter the water temperature the faster the substance will dissolve. There is a maximum amount of salt you can dissolve into a fixed volume of water after which it becomes a 'saturated solution'. At that point any salt added will no longer dissolve, though by heating the saturated solution you are able to dissolve more - it is then a super-saturated solution. As that begins to cool the salt will crystalise out again and begin to grow on the sides of the container or surface of the liquid.


Does salt dissolve faster in hot or cold water?

Salt dissolves faster in hot water because of the kinetic theory, which states that a particle in a higher temperature will move faster, causing the bonds holding it together to break, dissolving the salt crystal, and creating a semi-suspension.
