What else can I help you with?
Does a solid dissolves faster when it is ground?
YES!answ2. Dissolution of a solid is a surface phenomenon. Smaller particles have more surface area than larger ones do. So they dissolve faster.
What does not affect the rate at which a solid solute dissolves?
Increasing the pressure over a solid solute has virtually no effect on the rate that it dissolves. Stirring and increasing the temperature are the best methods for increasing the rate at which a solid solute dissolves.
Why does crushing a solid increase the speed at which the solid dissolves?
ALL reactions (apart from Nuclear) take place on the surface. By crushing the solid you are increasing the surface area and also the SA/Volume ratio. This increased surface area increases the area available for the dissolution reaction.
What does it mean to increase the surface area of a solid?
increase the surface area of a solid means to increase the area of solid
When does a solid dissolve faster?
A solid dissolves faster when it is crushed into smaller particles, increasing its surface area in contact with the solvent. Additionally, using a solvent at a higher temperature can also speed up the dissolution process due to increased kinetic energy.
Would not increase the rate at which a solid dissolves?
Increasing the temperature of a solid generally increases the rate of dissolution due to higher kinetic energy, causing more collisions between solvent molecules and the solid. However, factors like solubility, surface area, and stirring can also affect the rate of dissolution.
What is the surface area and volume of each solid below?
what is the surface area and volume of each solid below
Does surface area affect how fast a substance dissolves?
Yes, it is normal; a great surface area improve the speed of dissolution.
How is the surface area of a solid related to its solubility?
A greater surface area means a greater portion of the solid(solute) is in contact with the solvent at a given time. This increases the area in which interaction between the 2 substances can take place, and thus the rate at which the solute dissolves.
If the dimensions of a solid are measured in feet then the surface area of the solid would be measured in?
Then the surface area of the solid would be measured in square feet
What are the factors that affect how fast a solid solute dissolves?
The main factors that affect how fast a solid solute dissolves in a solvent are temperature (higher temperature usually leads to faster dissolving), surface area of the solute (smaller particles dissolve faster), stirring or agitation of the mixture, and the concentration of the solute in the solvent.
Why does a powdered solid have a larger surface area than a solid lump?
Each speck of the powder has a smaller surface area than the lump of solid, however the total surface area of the powder specks will be greater than that of the solid lump
