Hoping your question is "What will speed up the dissolving of a solid solute in water?"The surface area of the solute. Finely ground powder has a higher surface area than larger pieces of solute and will dissolve faster.The temperature of the water. Generally, as temperature increases so does the speed of solution.The type of solute. Some solutes have a higher solubility than others and will generally dissolve faster.How pure the water is. Generally, solutes dissolve faster in pure water, as the water takes in more solute it takes longer to dissolve further solute.The volume of solvent compared to the mass of solute. Larger volumes of water will dissolve a small mass of solute relatively quickly.
Dissolving a solid in water is typically an exothermic process because energy is released when the solute particles mix with the solvent particles. The energy released usually comes from the formation of new intermolecular bonds between the solute and solvent molecules.
The solid typically used for dissolving is a solute, which can be a salt, sugar, or any other soluble substance. When added to a solvent, such as water, the solute breaks down into its constituent particles, allowing it to disperse and form a solution. The choice of solute depends on the desired properties of the solution, such as concentration and reactivity.
Stirring increases the speed of a solute dissolving in water by promoting the movement and interaction between the solute particles and the solvent molecules. This agitation helps to disperse the solute throughout the solvent more evenly and increases the contact between them, facilitating the breaking of solute bonds and the formation of solute-solvent interactions. Additionally, stirring helps to remove the layer of concentrated solute around the dissolving particles, allowing fresh solvent to come into contact with them and accelerating the dissolution process.
The solid commonly used for dissolving in solutions is typically a solute, such as salt (sodium chloride) or sugar (sucrose). These substances can be mixed with a solvent, like water, to create a solution. The solute's molecules disperse among the solvent molecules, resulting in a homogeneous mixture.
Higher temperatures generally increase the speed of dissolving solids in water because heat provides energy to the solvent molecules, causing them to move more rapidly. This increased motion enhances the interactions between the solvent and solute, allowing solvent molecules to break apart the solute particles more effectively. Additionally, higher temperatures often increase the solubility of solids, enabling more solute to dissolve in the solvent.

solvent: water solute: baking soda
Yes, This solid is called a solute.
This is known as a solid-liquid solution where the solid solute dissolves in the liquid solvent to form a homogeneous mixture. An example is salt (solid) dissolving in water (liquid) to form a saltwater solution.
