Question 8 • Physical Science

Which best describes solubility?

Answer
A
the amount of surface area per a given mass
B
the speed at which a substance dissolves
C
the ability of one substance to dissolve in another
D
the temperature at which subtances become a mixture

Explanation

Solubility describes how well one substance can dissolve in another, such as sugar dissolving in water. The speed of dissolving is the rate of dissolution, not solubility, so the best choice is “the ability of one substance to dissolve in another.”
