The answer is: the solubility doesn't always increase with temperature. To dissolve something is most of the time an endothermic process, which means that it "absorbs" energy from its environment during the process and thus works better in environments where this energy is easily accessed (==> warmer environments).

However, there are some exceptions. For example dissolving Na2SO4 into water. This process is exothermic (gives energy to its environment) and works better in cold environments.

Hope this helps. Sorry for my English, it is not my native language. I'm pretty sure the answer is correct.

What factors affect the solubility of an ionic compound?

Charge an ion has, temperature, polarity of solutes and solvents and pressure.


What can be determined if the ion product is compared to the solubility product constant?

Whether a substance will precipitate can be determined if the ion product is compared to the solubility product constant. The value of any given equilibrium constant is accurate only at a specific temperature.


What is the different between solubility and solubility product in 500 words?

Solubility: the total amount of a solute dissolved in a solvent, at a given temperature, pressure and at saturation.Ex.: Sodium chloride - 359 g/L at room temperature.Solubility product: the concentration of the first ion multiplied by the concentration of the second ion, released by the dissociation of an ionic compound, at equilibrium. The appreciation is made with the solubility product constant:Ksp = [A].[B]Ex.: Lithium fluorideKsp = [Li+].[F-] = 3,8.10-3


Does the amount of sodium nitrate determine its solubility?

Solubility is described by the amount of solute dissolved in a solvent at a given temperature and pressure. The 'Common Ion Effect' can complicate the calculations somewhat if there are more than one solute present in the solution. In any event, how much you have does not determine the solubility, it describes the solubility. What you are asking is akin to asking if your height determines how tall you are. What determines how tall you are are things like hereditary, diet, and age. What determines solubility are things like ionic attraction, temperature and such.


Why is solubility of AgCl in AgNO3 is very low?

solubility of an ionic compound decreases in the presence of a common ion. A common ion in the solution, that is common to the ionic compound being dissolved. for example the silver ion in silver nitrate solution is common to the silver in silver chloride. the presence of a common ion must be taken into accounts when determining the solubility of an ionic compounds.


The solubility of a substance is lowered because of this?

common ion effect.

What is the effect of a common ion on dissolution rate?

A common ion will reduce the solubility of an electrolyte with an identical ion. The common ion will hence also reduce the dissolution rate of the electrolyte. For example, the solubility of a HCl salt of a weak organic base may be reduced in a HCl solution.


What state is fluoride at room temp?

Fluoride is not a substance in its own right. It's an ion that is a component of some ionic compounds. Most such compounds are solids at room temperature. The element fluorine, from which the fluoride ion is derived, is a gas.
