If u increase the pressure on a liquid or gas, u are forcing the molecules closer to each other in a space smaller than what it usually exists as. When the molecules come closer the spaces between them are highly reduced due to which there is less space for the molecules of solids or other liquids to fit into the spaces as it usually can. Hence it seems that the liquid or gas cannot dissolve a certain solid/liquid with the rate which it used to(it is lesser). hence u say that the solubility has reduced.

Increasing pressure generally increases the solubility of gases in liquids, as higher pressure forces more gas molecules into the liquid. In contrast, pressure typically has little effect on the solubility of solids in liquids. The rate of dissolving is usually faster at higher pressures due to the increased number of collisions between solute and solvent particles.

What things can affect solubility?
effect of temperature on solubility - solid in liquid-most solid become more soluble in a liquid as the temperature rises. effect of pressure on solubility -pressure changes have little effect on solubility if the solute is a liquid or a solid.
What slows down dissolving?
Factors such as temperature, stirring/mixing, surface area of the solid, and the nature of the solvent can affect the rate at which a substance dissolves. Cooler temperatures, lack of stirring, smaller surface area, and low solubility of the solute in the solvent can slow down the dissolving process.
Explain how temperature pressure particle size agitation effect solubility?
Increasing temperature generally increases solubility by providing more energy to overcome intermolecular forces, while increasing pressure can have varying effects depending on the substance. Smaller particle sizes increase surface area for interaction with solvent, enhancing solubility. Agitation helps disrupt solute-solvent interactions, facilitating dissolution and increasing solubility.
How does stirring and heating affect the solution?
Both stirring and heating increase the rate of dissolving
When the dissolving rate equals the rate at which molecules comes out of solution the solution is in?
When the dissolving rate equals the rate at which molecules comes out of solution the solution is in 'equilibrium'.
A solution may be prepared by dissolving crystals of a salt in water What would probably not affect the rate of solubility?
Reducing Aire Pressure
How does solubility affect the rate of dissolving?
A very soluble substance is dissolved faster.
Does the mass of a solution affect the rate of solubility?
In a high volume of solution dissolving is faster.
What would probably not affect the rate of solubility?
Reducing the air pressure on the solution
How does temperature affect the rate dissolving?
The higher the temperature, the greater the rate of dissolving.

What best shows that calcium is different from all other elements?
Its numbers of protrons
What will affect both the rate of dissolving and the solubility of a solid in a liquid?
Heating or stirring will normally increase the rate at which a soluble solid dissolves in liquid. Heating will also normally increase the amount of solute that can be retained in solution.
Does stirring affect the rate of dissolving?
Yes, in fact stirring does increase the rate of dissolving [or dissolution] of solids.
What effect does temperature have on the rate dissolving?
Temperature afftects the solubility...see Henrys Law and chemical kinetics
What is Dissolving the particles size?
How do the following factors affect the rate of dissolving for temperature change
What things can affect solubility?
effect of temperature on solubility - solid in liquid-most solid become more soluble in a liquid as the temperature rises. effect of pressure on solubility -pressure changes have little effect on solubility if the solute is a liquid or a solid.
