Identify the solvent
Which of the following actions will NOT
increase the rate of dissolution
(dissolving)?
Stirring the solution
Decreasing the temperature
Increasing the surface area of the
solute
Increasing the temperature
You are given a small beaker of solution at room temp. You add a bit of solute to the solution and it dissolves. The solution was:
saturated
unsaturated
concentrated
warm
How do you know when you have a saturated solution?
You don't see anymore material in the solution. It has dissolved.
The material dissolves and no more will dissolve because you see it collect at the bottom.
The solution is bubbling and cloudy.
The solution is clear and there is nothing at the bottom.
Which would NOT increase the rate at which a sugar cube dissolves?
Reducing the amount of solvent
Crushing the sugar cube
Stirring the solution
Heating the solvent
You can make a solute dissolve more quickly in a solvent by
adding more solute.
adding ice.
heating the solvent.
removing some solvent.
A solution that contains all of the solute it can hold at a given temperature is
diluted.
saturated.
supersaturated.
unsaturated.
The amount of solute that can be dissolved in a specific amount of solvent at a given temperature is its
concentration.
density.
dilution.
solubility.
Three 10 g samples of sugar are represented below.
Sample A dissolves in water more slowly than sample B.
Sample B dissolves more slowly than sample C.
Which of the following best explains why sample A dissolves more slowly than the other two?
It has the most volume.
It has the smallest surface area.
It has the largest number of sugar molecules.
It has the fewest bonds between sugar modules.
A technican prepared a solution by heating 100 mL of distilled water while adding KCl crystals until no more KCl would dissolve. She then capped the clear solution and set it aside on the lab counter. After several hours she noticed the solution had become cloudly and some solid had settled to the bottom of the flask. Which statement best describes what happened?
As the solution cooled, evaporation of water increased the KCl concentration beyond its solubility.
Water molecules, trapped with the KCl crystals, were released after heating.
At lower temperatures the solubility of KCl decreased and recrystallization occurred.
At increased temperatures the solubility of KCl increased and remained too high after cooling.
A student pours mineral salts into a bottle of cold water. Which of the following best explains why shaking the bottle will affect the dissolving rate of the salt?
Shaking exposes the salts to the solvent more quickly.
Shaking helps more water evaporate.
Shaking equalizes the water temperature.
Shaking causes more ions to precipitate out of solution.
Students in Ms. Alvarez’s science class are investigating how temperature, in degrees Celsius (C), affects the solubility of a compound in 100 milliliters (mL) of water. Ms. Alvarez provides the students with a graph that shows the solubility of a certain compound, as shown below.

40 g
65 g
85 g
100 g
