Explain the effect of pressure on the solubility. |
Answer» 1. The change in pressure does not have any significant effect in the solubility of solids and liquids as they are not compressible. However the solubility of gases generally increases with increase of pressure. 2. According to Le – chatlier’s principle, the increase in pressure will shift the equilibrium in the direction which will reduce the pressure. Therefore, more number of gaseous molecules dissolves in the solvent. 3. If pressure increases, solubility of gas also increases. |
