Solutions and Solubility

Question 6 • HCISD-Integrated Physics and Chemistry A-CR SUMMER

What happens when the temperature of a solution increases? Check all of the boxes that apply.

Answer
A
solubility of a solid solute increases
B
solubility of a liquid solute decreases
C
solubility of a gaseous solute decreases
D
additional solute that is added will dissolve more slowly

Explanation

For most solid solutes, increasing temperature increases solubility, so more solid can dissolve. Gas solubility generally decreases as temperature rises, so choice C also applies. The effect on a liquid solute is not generally that its solubility decreases, and higher temperature usually makes dissolving faster rather than slower.
