It is the amount of surface of a solute that is exposed to the solvent. The smaller the pieces of the solute are, the larger the surface area that is exposed to the solvent.
It exposes more of the solute surface to the water molecules.
It exposes more of the solute surface to the water molecules.
No, a solute cannot be bigger than a solvent. A solvent is the substance in which a solute is dissolved, and the size of the solute must be smaller than that of the solvent molecules to form a homogeneous mixture.
Yes, the size of the solute particles can affect the dissolving time. Smaller solute particles dissolve faster than larger particles because they have a greater surface area for interaction with the solvent, allowing for quicker dissolution.
Increasing the temperature, stirring the solution, or reducing the size of solute particles will cause the solvent to collide with the solute more often.
The size of the solute particles is generally smaller than the size of the solvent particles.

The largest possible diameter for a solute particle is ultimately determined by the size of the container or solvent in which it is dissolved, as well as the interactions between the solute and solvent molecules. In a practical sense, the size of solute particles can vary greatly, from nanometer-scale ions to larger macromolecules.
You can change the solubility of a solute by adjusting the temperature, pressure, or by adding a solvent that the solute is more soluble in. Additionally, you can alter the particle size of the solute to increase its surface area, which can affect its solubility.
