Solubility is in grams per liter (or pounds per gallon, or whatever units). One experimental method is to start with a carefully measured amount of water (your solvent in this case) and add carefully measured amounts of the unknown solid (the solute) and stir often until it doesn't dissolve anymore and some of it stays in chunks (or crystals or powder) either on the top or bottom of the water (which will also tell you whether its specific gravity is greater or less than water). The number of grams you used before it stopped dissolving is the numerator of the fraction, the measured volume of water you put it in is the denominator. The reduced fraction is its solubility.

What is the name given to liquid which dissolve solid?

The liquid is called a solvent. It has the ability to dissolve solid particles, forming a solution.


Why is soap solution is saturated with naci?

The NaCl does not dissolve completely in the soap solution because the solution is saturated, meaning it has reached its maximum capacity to dissolve more NaCl. Any additional NaCl added will not dissolve and will remain as a solid in the solution.


What are the 7 S words in science to do with dissolving?

Solute which is the solid being dissolved Solvent which is the liquid the solid is dissolving into Solution which is the solute and the solvent mixed together Soluble which means that something will dissolve Insoluble which means that something will not dissolve Solubility which is how much something will dissolve and Saturated which is when a solution has dissolved that maximum amount of solute


What does a solid and liquid make?

it depends on the solubility of the solid in that specific liquid. If the solid is highly soluble, then it should dissolve completely forming a solution, possibly coloured. If it is not, then it will just sit in the liquid.


Which one a solution in which no more material will dissolve is saturateddilutedconcentradedsolvent?

The solution in which no more material will dissolve is called a saturated solution. In a saturated solution, the maximum amount of solute has been dissolved in the solvent at a given temperature and pressure. Any additional solute added will not dissolve and will remain as a solid.

What happen when liquid mixed with solid?

If the solid is soluble (can dissolve) then it will dissolve in the liquid and give you a solution.


How can you dissolve a solid faster?

You could crush the solid, stir the solution, and/or heat the solution.


What is a solid in a solution?

A precipitate is a solid in a solution. The precipitate will not dissolve in the solution, it is insoluble!! The opposite of a precipitate is a solute.


Which solid makes a saturated solution when you add 40g of it to 100g of water?

Assuming the solid is the limiting reagent, the saturation point of the solution is reached when no more solid can dissolve in the solvent, creating a saturated solution. The solubility of the solid must be known to determine if 40g can fully dissolve in 100g of water.

Is PbSO4 a solid or an aqueous solution?

PbSO4 is a solid that will not dissolve in water.


Saturated solution will usually dissolve more solid solutes if it is?

heated, as the increase in temperature generally increases the solubility of solids in liquids. However, once a solution is saturated, adding more solute will not dissolve and will instead remain as solid at the bottom of the container.

Why is soap solution is saturated with naci?
