Lesson 2: SolubilityApply: solubility
Problem
The following graph shows the solubilities of different ionic solids across various temperatures.
Using the graph, complete the following statements.
- In general, as the temperature increases, the solubility of ionic solids in water.
- This means thatsolid is able to dissolve in the same amount of water at higher temperatures.
- This is because the kinetic energy of the water moleculesas the temperature increases, making them more effective at disrupting the ionic bonds.
