Make a solid dissolve more quickly by increasing: 1. the temperature of the liquid. 2. the surface area of the solid (e.g. cut it in half). 3. increase the pressure of the liquid on the solid.

if you would like to make something dissolve faster then you want to make sure that whatever your using to make it dissolve faster is a great conductor. something being a great conductor would be like metal. its something you would want to use for dissolving and melting.

-- now if you are not quit certain of knowing what a conductor is, it is something that wants to reach thermodynamic equalibrium<meaning wanting to reach the same temperature> alot faster so it will give up or gain heat fast so that it will get its disire; thus making something dissolve or melt a lot faster

1. Increase surface area: crush, grind, etc.

2. Stir/ increase movement

3. Add heat

You could crush the solid, stir the solution, and/or heat the solution.

What word describes a solution that cannot dissolve any more solid?

Saturated. But you can change the conditions and supersaturate many solutions.


What sugar will desolve first sugar cube or granulated sugar?

A sugar cube will - one, sugar cubes are designed specifically to dissolve quickly into solvents such as tea, coffee, liquids to make solutions. Granulated sugar, on the other hand, is often a solute for solid solvents such as flour etc. However, the granulated sugar can be dissolved more quickly if stirred, which makes the solute particles attract to the solvent particles more efficiently.


Why does crushing help a solid solute dissolve?

The rate of dissolution of a solid is dependent on the surface area reaction. By crushing the cube, the surface area is greatly increased, thus increasing the rate of dissolution.


How do you dissolve a solid in a solid?

Typically, it goes like this: Solute + Solvent = Solution But a liquid can also dissolve in liquid; gas in liquid; gas in solid and finally solid in solid. Solid solutions are common in metal compounds. Two compounds/element with suitable crystal lattice structures maybe melted and mixed in proper composition. The additional atoms/compounds take up space in the existing crystal lattice or distort it in a certain way to form a new material. The properties of this new material may be totally different from the individual components (example A) or be an enhancement of the properties of the old components (example B). example A: Alloys example B: Iron and Carbon will make Steel; Lead Zirconate Titanate and additive atoms for advanced Piezoelectric materials


How does increase in temperature affect the solubility of a gas?

When you increase the temperature the solubility of a solute in a solution increases. This is due to the fact that heat is required to break the bonds that are holding the molecules in the solid together. Note that the opposite is true for gases, though.

How does a particular size affect a soluble solid?

The smaller the particles, the more quickly and easily they dissolve. A powdered solute will dissolve faster than a large piece of the same solute.


Does solid dissolves more quickly in wter of higher temperature than lower temperature?

Solids dissolve in water of a higher or lower temperature depending on what the solid actually is.


Do solids dissolve more quickly in cold or warm water?

Solids dissolve a lot more quickly in hot water because the heat breaks up the particles more quickly, where as the cold would make the particles stay stronger/closer together :)


Saturated solution will usually dissolve more solid solutes if it is?

A saturated solution will usually dissolve more solid solutes if it is stirred or heated.


Will more solid dissolve in a shallower dish?

What can change the solubility of a solid in a liquid?

temperature. The higher the temperature of the liquid, the more of the solid you can dissolve in it.


Can solubility be increased by stiring the solute?

No. It doesn't increase solubility, but it can make the solute dissolve more quickly than if you just left it there.
