What will increasing the surface area of a solid do to the dissolving rate of that solid?

It will increase it, as more of the outer surface of the solid is incontact with the liquid that it is dissolving in. :)


What are some things you can do to increase the rate of dissolving a solid in a liquid?

heat


Which of the following does not increase the rate of dissolving a solid in water?

Increasing the pressure decreases the volume of gas bubbles and does not increase the rate of dissolving a solid in water.


What will affect both the rate of dissolving and the solubility of a solid in a liquid?

Temperature and particle size of the solid will affect both the rate of dissolving and the solubility in a liquid. Higher temperatures generally increase the rate of dissolving and solubility, while smaller particles increase the rate of dissolving due to increased surface area available for interaction with the solvent.


How can you increase the rate of dissolution?

To increase the rate of dissolution, you can: Increase the surface area of the solid (e.g., crush it into smaller particles). Stir or agitate the solution to promote mixing. Increase the temperature of the solvent (if feasible) as higher temperatures generally increase the rate of dissolution.


Why does the increase of an area of a solid cause an increase in the rate of dissolving?

The increase in the surface area of a solid enhances the rate of dissolving because it exposes more particles of the solid to the solvent. When more surface area is available, there are more interactions between the solid and solvent molecules, leading to a greater number of collisions and faster dissolution. This increased interaction accelerates the process by which the solid breaks apart and enters the solution. Therefore, a larger surface area generally results in a quicker rate of dissolving.


When dissolving a solid in liquid heat does what the rate of dissolving?

What effect do temperature and stirring have on the rate of dissolving?

Stirring and increasing temperature increase the dissolving rate.


Does stirring affect the rate of dissolving?

Yes, in fact stirring does increase the rate of dissolving [or dissolution] of solids.
