What are some things you can do to increase the rate of dissolving a solid in a liquid?
heat
What will increasing the surface area of a solid do to the dissolving rate of that solid?
It will increase it, as more of the outer surface of the solid is incontact with the liquid that it is dissolving in. :)
How do the methods of speeding the rate of solution for dissolving a solid in a liquid compare to the methods of speeding the rate of solution when dissolving a gas in a liquid?
Heat (in most cases) has an opposite effect on the solubility of solids as compared to gases. Almost all solids will dissolve faster in a liquid at higher temperatures, whereas gases will dissolve in a liquid faster at lower temperatures (as long as the temperature is not so low that the liquid in question freezes).
What will affect both the rate of dissolving and the solubility of a solid in a liquid?
Heating or stirring will normally increase the rate at which a soluble solid dissolves in liquid. Heating will also normally increase the amount of solute that can be retained in solution.
When a substance freezes what causes the liquid phase to change into the solid phase?
When a liquid is cooled, the average energy of the molecules decreases. At some point, the amount of heat removed is great enough that the attractive forces between molecules draw the molecules close together, and the liquid freezes to a solid. Microscopic view of a liquid. Microscopic view of a solid. The temperature of a freezing liquid remains constant, even when more heat is removed. The freezing point of a liquid or the melting point of a solid is the temperature at which the solid and liquid phases are in equilibrium. The rate of freezing of the liquid is equal to the rate of melting of the solid and the quantities of solid and liquid remain constant.
How fast a solid solute dissolves?
The rate of dissolving would be temperature dependent.
How can you increase the rate of dissolution?
One way is to grind up solid, or increase the temperature. Also, you can stir the solution, and then, there are enzymes.
What decrease speed of dissolving a gas in a liquid?
To decrease the rate of solution of a given solid into a given solvent, cool the liquid.
How does breaking up solid speeddissolving in liquid?
Breaking up the solid into smaller pieces increases the amount of surface area exposed to the solvent. Because the solvent is acting over a larger surface area, the rate of dissolving increases.
Do heat affects how fast a substance will dissolve?
Yes. Most substances dissolve at a faster rate when the liquid they're dissolving in is heated. This is because heat is the thermal motion of the molecules of liquid, so if they are moving faster the solid dissolves faster. The solution capacity (saturation point) also usually increases.
What affects both the rate of solution and the solubility of a solid in a liquid?
Temperature affects both the rate of solution and the solubility of a solid in a liquid
How could you increase the rate of dissolving of sugar in tea?
heat up the tea
