Factors affecting solubility:
1. the nature of solute/solvent (chemical composition, polarity)
2. temperature
3. pressure
4. stirring
5. surface area of the solute
6. some added compounds
7. amount of the solute 8. the geometry of the beaker

How does principle of like dissolves like explain the differing solubilities of solutes in various solvent?
Generally polar solutes are dissolved in polar solvents and nonpolar solutes are dissolved in nonpolar solvents.
What are the possible physical states of solutes and solvents in a gaseous solutions?
Both would be gas.
Is solute always a solid?
Not necessarily. It may also be a gas or a solid. In any mixture, the component that is present in the largest proportion is known as a solvent. For example, in our atmosphere, Nitrogen (78% by volume) is the solvent. This is a gaseous mixture.
Is water a solute in which many things dissolve?
actually the substance in which a thing dissolves is called a solvent, and the things which dissolves in the solvent is called a solute. and water is called a universal solvent cuz it can dissolve a very wide range of solutes with a slight differende in their solubilities( that is the capacity to dissolve). fr eg in the case of sugar solution water is a solvent.
How do molecular solutes differ from ionic solutes when dissolved in solution?
Molecular solutes will not conduct electricity when dissolved in solution, and ionic solutes will conduct electricity when dissolved in solution.

What are some examples of gaseous solutes and solid solvents?
water
What is the greatest amount of solute that a given solvent can dissolve?
A solvent will only dissolve enough solute to reach its saturation point. Exact quantities are defined by the nature of the specific solvent ant solute, and the prevailing environmental conditions.
What are the possible physical states of solutes and solvents in a gaseous solutions?
Both would be gas.
How do you determine which solutes are salts?
Only using methods of analytical chemistry.
What difference does chromatography rely on to separate out parts of a solution?
Different molecular sizes apex

Is carbon a solutes or solvent?
1. Liquid carbon dioxide (supercritical CO2) is used as solvent. 2. Gaseous carbon dioxide can be a solvent in water or other liquids.
What solutes dissolve better in cold water?
Generally, polar solutes such as sugar and salt dissolve better in cold water compared to non-polar solutes like oil. However, the solubility of a solute can vary based on its molecular structure and the specific conditions of the solution.
Why do solutes dissolve?
Because solutes are smaller.
