Yes, there are a number of different methods and instruments that can measure particle size. The method of testing and type of instrumentation required is partly dependent on the form of the sample to be measured for example; sprays, droplets, powders, suspensions.

Why does reducing solute size particle size increase the speed at which the solute dissolves in water?

For the amount of material in the particle the surface area of a small particle is greater than a larger particle. Said another way, the surface area per unit volume is greater for a smaller particle. Dissolving speed is related to the surface area. Therefore a smaller particle dissolves faster than a larger particle.
