Front

How can you make a solid solute dissolve more quickly in a solvent?

Back

Heating the solvent.

Front

A solution that contains all of the solute it can hold at a given temperature is:
- diluted
- saturated
- supersaturated
- unsaturated

Back

saturated

Front

Why does sample A dissolve more slowly than samples B and C?

Back

It has the smallest surface area.

Front

What happens to a KCl solution when it cools after being saturated at a higher temperature?

Back

At lower temperatures the solubility of KCl decreased and recrystallization occurred.
