The warmer a liquid is, right up to its boiling point, the better solids dissolve. Put another way, you can generally dissolve more of a solid in a warm/hot liquid than in a cool/cold liquid.

Conversely, gasses dissolve in liquids better at cooler temperatures. That's why a warm Coke spews (out-gasses) worse than a cold one...so keep your cola cold, and sweeten your tea while it's still hot!

What happens to the solubility of a solid in water as the temperature increases?

In general, the solubility of most solids in water increases as the temperature increases. This is because higher temperatures provide more energy for the solvent molecules to interact with and break down the solid particles, allowing more of the solid to dissolve in the water. However, there are exceptions where the solubility of certain solids may decrease with increasing temperature, depending on the specific substances involved.


How does the solubility of a substance change with a rise in temperature?

With a rise of temperature, the solubility increases


Does CO2 dissolve in water and what are the factors that affect its solubility in this liquid medium?

Yes, carbon dioxide (CO2) does dissolve in water. The factors that affect its solubility in water include temperature, pressure, and the presence of other substances in the water. Generally, colder temperatures and higher pressures increase the solubility of CO2 in water.


What is the solubility of CaF2 in water and how does it vary with temperature?

The solubility of CaF2 in water increases with temperature. At 25C, the solubility of CaF2 in water is about 0.0016 g/100 mL. As the temperature rises, the solubility also increases.


What factors affect the rate at which a solid dissolves in water?

The most usual factors that affect the speed at which something dissolves are the temperature of the solvent, and any stirring of the solution that is being done. The relative quantity of solvent compared to solute is also an important factor, since there is only so much solute that will dissove before the solution is saturated.

What is the affect of temperature on the solubility of calcium sulphate in water?

See http://www.fiu.edu/~pricer/Calcium%20Carbonate.pdf.The solubility of CaCO3 depends on the solubility of CO2. The solubility of gases decreases in water as the temperature rises. This behavior is discussed at http://antoine.frostburg.edu/chem/senese/101/solutions/faq/temperature-gas-solubility.shtml.


What happens if solids are soluble in water?

They will dissolve in the water and form a solution. The amount that will dissolve depends on the solubility of the solid and the temperature.

How does changing temperature or pressure affect the solubility of gas in water?

Increasing temperature decreases gas solubility in water due to reduced gas solubility at higher temperatures. In contrast, increasing pressure increases gas solubility in water according to Henry's law, which states that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas above the liquid.
