To dissolve hard water buildup on plastic, the plastic can be sprayed with a solution of white vinegar and water. Let the solution stay on the material for a while, then wash with a dish soap and rinse well. Smaller pieces can be soaked in vinegar and water for a while, then washed.
Best practices dictate that if you want any control whatsoever over the size and geometry of the smaller pieces, that you take your diamond to a diamond cutter and pay to have it 'broken' into smaller pieces. If you don't care about the smaller pieces, or the value of the diamond, you could hit the diamond with a hammer and see what happens.
The process of dissolving by breaking into smaller pieces is called dissolution. This is the process through which a solute makes a solution by breaking the solvent.
In general, yes; the same amount of mass will probably dissolve more slowly if divided into a few large particles than into many small particles. This is because dissolution takes place at the surface, and small particles have a higher surface area to volume ratio than large particles (assuming the particles are the same shape).
Higher temperatures, agitation, small powdered pieces of solute
The smaller the particle the faster it dissolves. This is because the process by which a solute dissolves takes place at the surface of the solvent. That means the larger the surface area of a particle or solute, the faster the solute will dissolve.
a molecule
Yes. Smaller grains of salt will dissolve more quickly than larger ones. This is because many small grains have a greater surface area exposed to the solvent than a few large pieces.
The small pieces have a larger combined surface area than the previous large piece had. When you cut the block into pieces, you are exposing new surfaces that were previously on the inside of the block. And the process of dissolving happens at the surface. So the more surface is exposed, the faster something can dissolve.
weathering
The smaller pieces have more total surface area with which to interact with the liquid, thus the liquid can disolve them faster than the whole marshmallow.
Particle size affects solubility. When particle size is small, the surface area per unit volume is larger, thus the solubility is increased.
Substances dissolve more quickly when more surface area is exposed. By cutting an alka-seltzer in half, you are exposing more surface area to the solvent (water). It would dissolve even more quickly if it were cut into more pieces or crushed into a fine powder.
With smaller particles there is more surface area for the solvent to reach. Less surface area means less places where the solvent can dissolve. Think about grain salt v. a salt block. If you pour the same amount of water on both, the water will reach and dissolve a majority of the grain salt immediately. However, the water will only touch the outside of the block salt. The middle would remain untouched.
Digestive juices are acids that dissolve food down into smaller pieces so it can be absorbed into the blood stream .
It makes sense to multiply when converting measurements to smaller units because it takes many smaller units to make up a larger unit. So in order to translate larger unit(s) into smaller units, you have to break up the larger unit(s) into many smaller pieces.
greater surface area to volume ratio greater the rate of dissolution it will dissolve faster if broken into smaller pieces hence smaller = faster
