Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the effect of temperature on the solubility of most solid solutes in liquids? (2022)
  • Step 1: Understand what solubility means. Solubility is how much of a solid can dissolve in a liquid.
  • Step 2: Know that temperature is how hot or cold something is.
  • Step 3: Realize that when you heat a liquid, the molecules in it move faster. This is called increased kinetic energy.
  • Step 4: When solid solutes (like sugar or salt) are added to a heated liquid, the faster-moving molecules help the solid dissolve more easily.
  • Step 5: Therefore, for most solid solutes, as the temperature of the liquid increases, the amount of solid that can dissolve also increases.
