Question

Explain why solubility is a size independent physical property.

Answer 1

solubility are size-independent physical properties of matter because their values do not uniformly increase or decrease relative to size or volume.

For example, a cannon has greater density than a cup of water, even though the cannon has much greater volume. Solubility is the measure of a substance's ability to dissolve, therefore both large and small objects can have high or low solubility. For example, a packet of sugar has greater solubility than a bowling bowl, while a large mineral lick has greater solubility than a pin.
