effects of temperature on solubility |
|
Answer» Liquids and solids exhibit practically no change ofsolubilitywith changes inpressure. Gases as might be expected, increase insolubilitywith an increase inpressure. Henry's Law states that: Thesolubilityof a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to thepressureof that gas above the surface of the solution. Thus, increasing the temperature increases the solubilities of substances. For example, sugar and salt are more soluble inwaterat higher temperatures. But, as the temperature increases, the solubility of a gas in a liquid decreases. As temperature increases, the average kinetic energy of the gas molecules increases. |
