SOLUBILITY CURVE

The solubility curve of

some solids are plotted in a
graph called the
SOLUBILITY CURVE.
The solubility curve of
different salts are given at
different temperatures.
 EFFECT OF PRESSURE

Solubility of gas in
liquids. The solubility
of solids in liquids are
not affected by
pressure.
 SURFACE AREA

Interaction between the solute and the

solvent occurs at the surface area.
Therefore, the greater the surface
area the greater the interaction of the
solute and the solvent, and thus
solubility increases.The surface area
can be increased by grinding the solid
into finer particles.
 STIRRING

As solute is added to the solvent,

solute particles tend to
concentrate in a section of the
mixture and the dissolving
process slows down. Stirring will
disperse the solute into the
sections of the solvent, increasing
the dissolution process.
