How do you increase solubility?

Answer 1

1) Strong solute-solvent greater solubility while weak solute-solvent attractions equate to lesser solubility

2) Temperature (for gaz high temperature decrease solubility)

3) Pressure for solubility gaz in liquid

4) Polarity of solvent: Like dissolves like

Answer 2

To increase solubility, you can heat the solution (as most solutes dissolve better in warmer solvents), stir or agitate the solution to increase contact between solute and solvent, or use a co-solvent that the solute can dissolve in better. Additionally, you can decrease the particle size of the solute by grinding it into a finer powder or increasing the surface area of the solute.

Answer 3

Increase temperature.

any of the following:-

1) increase the temperature of the Solvent (what you are trying to dissolve in)

2) increase the surface area of the Solute (what you are dissolving)

3) increase the agitation (stirring) and the amount of the solvent.

Answer 4

You'd need to give a LOT more information on what you're trying to increase the solubility of.

Quick rule of thumb: gases are more soluble in cool liquids, solids are more soluble in warm liquids.

Choosing a solvent which is "similar" to the solute generally increases solubility. Organic goop is generally more soluble in a water/ethanol or water/acetone mixture than it is in pure water, and for a lot of pharmacologically interesting compounds you can make them more soluble in water by converting them from the "free base" form to a salt.

Answer 5

we will increase the temperature

Improved Answer... by Vijay Duggirala:

any of the following:-

1) increase the temperature of the Solvent (what you are trying to dissolve in)

2) increase the surface area of the Solute (what you are dissolving)

3) increase the agitation (stirring) and the amount of the solvent.

Answer 6

There is no ONE answer, but one of the most efficient ways to increase solubility of a compound is to make a salt out of that compound. If it is a basic compound, such as a amine for example, one can make the HCl salt. If it is an acidic compound, one may be able to make the Na or K salt by reacting with NaOH or KOH.

Answer 7

Increase the temperature, increase the surface area of the solid, or stirring.

Answer 8

With very rare exceptions solids are more soluble at higher temperatures.

Answer 9

Usually, but not always, increase temperature.

Answer 10

By adding heat I think...
