Dissolving is caused by the small rapid movements of the atoms or molecules. The faster they are moving, the better substances dissolve. As the molecules have more energy and therefore move faster in hot water, substances dissolve better there.

Do solids dissolve more quickly in cold or warm water?

Solids generally dissolve more quickly in warm water compared to cold water. This is because warm water molecules move faster and have more energy, facilitating the breakdown and dispersal of the solid particles.


Does copper sulphate dissolve better in cold water or in warm water?

Copper sulfate dissolves better in warm water because higher temperatures typically increase the solubility of solids. Warm water has more kinetic energy, allowing the copper sulfate particles to break apart more easily and mix with the water molecules.


Does sugar dissolve better in hot water than in cold water?

yes.


Does powdered juice dissolve better faster in hot or in cold water?

Powdered juice dissolves faster in hot water, but tastes better in cold water.


Does Alka-Seltzer dissolve better in hot water or cold water?

All solutes (e.g. Alka-Seltzer) dissolve better in a warmer solvent (e.g. water).


Why wont solids dissolve in cold water?

As A Matter Of Fact, They DO Melt. The Liquid Just Has To Be About A Degree Or Two Warmer To Melt It.


Do sugar cubes dissolve better in a hot place?

They will dissolve much quicker in warm or hot water than in cold water.


Can cold water clean dishes?

It can, but hot water works better because it helps to dissolve grease and hardened food better than cold.


Why does hot water hold more dissolved solids than cold water?

Hot water molecules move faster and have greater energy, which allows them to break apart bonds between molecules more easily. This increased kinetic energy makes it easier for solids to dissolve in the water. In contrast, cold water molecules move more slowly and have less energy, making it more difficult for solids to dissolve.


Who is better to dissolve in hot water or cold water?

hot water because the molecules are moving faster


Does sugar and salt dissolve better in hot or cold water?

Cold is what I've found works best.


Do most solutes dissolve better in warm water or in cold water?

Most solutes dissolve better in warm water because the molecules of warm water move faster, so the water molecules and the solute come in contact more often. For solid solutes, it is generally true that you can dissolve more in warm water than cold water (though I'm not sure the above answer states the reason for this correctly). But gasses generally dissolve better in cold water.
