Best Answer

1. Quantity

2. Temperature

3. Dissolution method

First, the quantity of the solvent will affect solubility. Second, the temperature of the solvent will affect solubility. Third, the method of dissolution such as by shaking, stirring, sonics, or just letting it sit will affect solubility.

What is The ability of a solute to dissolve in a given amount of solvents?

It is the solubility of the solute in the solvent.


Explain how a solute can dissolve in polar and nonpolar solvents?

=a polar solvent dissolves a polar solute, and nonpolar solvents dissolve nonpolar solutes. likes dissolve likes=


The ability of a substance to dissolve in a solvent is called?

The ability of a solute to dissolve in a solvent at a certain temperature is called solubility. The solubility of most solids in water increases with temperature increases.


What must be true in order for a solute to dissolve in a solvent?

As a rule polar solutes are dissolved in polar solvents and nonpolar solutes are dissolved in nonpolar solvents.


Why do heated solvents dissolve solute faster?

One solvent is not faster than another, because different solutes require different solvents. If you are using the right solvent, the solute will usually dissolve rapidly. You can also make things dissolve faster by heating the solvent, and by stirring the solution.


Polar solvents dissolve the solute?

Polar solvents will dissolve ionic or polar solutes. This is due to the solubility rule that states that like dissolves like. So a polar solvent will not dissolve non-polar solutes.


Explain the difference between solvents and solutes?

The solute is the substance being dissolved. The solvent is the substance that does the dissolving. There is usually more solvent than solute involved.


If a solute does not dissolve in a solvent?

Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents. Non-polar solutes are soluble in non-polar solvents. Polar solutes are miscible in non-polar solvents and vice verse.


Increasing temperature favors dissolution when?

solute dissolves more rapidly in hot water


What types of substances will dissolve in polar solvents?

what type of solute can dissolve on a polar solvent such as water?


What affects the solubility of a substance in water?

temperature, pressure, presence of other chemical species (for the same solute and the same solvent)


Why grinding help a solution dissolve rapidly?

It increases the surface area of the solute that is exposed to the solvent.
