What is the process in which a substance breaks up into smaller particles as it dissolves?

You question makes no sense. If particles dissolve they go into solution, they do not "break apart and scatter".

Differentiate dispersion method from condensation method?
In the preparation of colloids, using the dispersion method, larger particles of the substance are broken down into much smaller parts. Using the condensation method, smaller particles are dispersed and condensed to colloidal size.
What findings led JJ Thomson to infer that particles are smaller than atoms do exist?
Particles are smaller
You can speed up a reaction if you break the solid reactant into smaller pieces what factor does this describe?
When you break up a solid into smaller pieces it dissolves faster when you have big pieces of the solid you have to wait for the substance that is dissolving it ti be picked up by the object that is being dissolved but when the pieces are smaller it dissolves faster because their smaller and the substance dissolving the object get picked up much faster
Smallest particle of a substance that is still identifiable as that substance?
An atom, these include protons, neutrons and electrons. The number of these smaller particles is what distingushes one atom of an element for another. For example, an atom of oxygen has 8 protons, neutrons, and electrons while a hydrogen atom has 1 proton neutron and electron
What is a chemical or physical process in which rocks exposed to the weather are worn down by water wind or ice?
Smaller particles of rock are produced from larger particles.
Does the size of the particles of solute affect the solubility of the substance?
The size of the particles of solute do not affect the solubility of a substance, which is determined by its chemical composition, but it does affect how quickly it dissolves. The smaller the particles of the solute, the faster it will dissolve.
What is the simplest organized substance but is too composed to smaller particles?
blood
What is the simplest organized substance known although it too is composed of smaller particles?
Atoms
What is the substance that makes up the smaller part of a solution called?
The solute is the name of the substance that dissolves in a solvent e.g. in salt water, salt is the solute, water is the solvent.
How the size of particles affect the way the particles dissolve?
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.
What happens at particle level when something dissolves?
The solvents particles (for example salt) break up into smaller pieces and they mix with the solute particles (for example water).
What process tears grinds and mashes large food particles into smaller ones?
Mechanical digestion tears, grinds, and mashes large food particles into smaller ones.
How does upthrust vary liquid of different densities?
if a substance has more particles in a smaller space (higher density), then the substance can be less easily displaced and has a higher upthrust
How do you make substance dissolve quickly?
If you want to make materials dissolve faster, and your adding stuff to a drink, like lemonade, maybe you would cut up the little sugar cubes even smaller, so that the liquid has less to dissolve; and if you stir the drink after adding all the ingredients together, the particles will collide with each other and make the dissolving even faster. !
Use the particle theory of matter to explain why table salt dissolves more rapidly than rock salt?
Table salt is made up of smaller clumps of particles than rock salt. To dissolve, particles of the salt must come in contact with the solvent particles than rock salt, resulting in faster dissolving. (Copied from the Pure Substance & Mixtures Section of some Nelson Literacy Science Text Book) :)

What word describes the process of a heavy atomic nucleus splitting into several smaller particles?
Fission
