One of the biggest factors in dissolving speed in the type of bonds its atoms have. The most soluble substances are ionic, meaning that a positive ion (usually an Alkali metal or Alkali Earth metal, like sodium) is attracted to a negative ion (always a non-metal or metaloid like chlorine). In the examples I gave, chlorine would bond with sodium to form salt.
Less soluble than ionic substances, covalant substances are formed when atoms share electrons in their outer (valant) electron shell in order to attain the stable electron configuration of a noble gas.
The least soluble is metallic bonding, which happens strictly between metals, and mostly in transition metals. This is when all the metal atoms band together in a group, with all the electrons on the outside.

What is a substance that will not dissolve into another substance?
A substance that does not dissolve is insoluble.
How does the amount of a substance effect the rate of it dissolving?
Well the more of the substance u put the more it takes longer. for example if u r having a cup of tea and u put 3 teaspoons of sugar it would take longer to dissolve rather than 2 teaspoons.
What is the large amount of solute?
The "solute" is the substance you are trying to dissolve. The solvent is the substance you are trying to dissolve it in.
Which will dissolve faster a substance with little surface area or the one with a large surface area?
A substance with a larger surface area will dissolve faster because it provides more contact points for the solvent to interact with, leading to a faster rate of dissolution compared to a substance with little surface area.
What effect does crushing have on solution rate?
Crushing sugar into smaller particulates INCREASES the rate at which the sugar will dissolve because the water can act on a larger overall surface area.
How does cold liquid affect the rate at which a substance dissolves?
Colder temperatures make molecules move more slowly. Since molecules are moving more slowly, they are less likely to 'bump' into each other and interact. When you are trying to dissolve a substance, you want as many interactions as possible between the substance you want to dissolve and the liquid you are trying to dissolve it in. Since the cold temperature slows down the rate of these interactions, it slows down the rate at which a substance dissolves.
How does temperature effect the rate od dissolving sugar?
it makes it faster to dissolve
Does ink and salt dissolve in water at same rate at same temperatures?
no, ink is a more thicker substance
Which substance has the greatest effect on the rate at which rocks weather?
Water has the greatest effect on the rate at which rocks weather, as it can cause physical and chemical weathering processes to occur more rapidly. Water can dissolve minerals within rocks, increase their susceptibility to erosion, and facilitate the growth of vegetation that can further break down rocks.

How does catalysis affect te rate in which substances will dissolve?
a substance that inreases the rate of reation by lowering the activation-energy barrier. the catalyst is not used up in the reaction.
When you dissolve a substance in a liquid do you get an alloy compound or a solution?
When you dissolve a substance in a liquid you get a solution.
How does water dissolve substance?
by the pelformane of the substance
What is chromatophy?
