How does the volume of a solute affect the time needed for a known mass of a solid to dissolve in a liquid?
Thanks to anyone who answers :)

Answer:
Factors Affecting Solubility
Solid Solubility and Temperature
Solubility often depends on temperature; the solubility of many substances increases with increasing temperature.
Solid Solubility and Temperature
The solubility of a given solute in a given solvent typically depends on temperature. Many salts show a large increase in solubility with temperature. Some solutes exhibit solubility that is fairly independent of temperature. A few, such as cerium(III) sulfate, become less soluble in water as temperature increases. This temperature dependence is sometimes referred to as retrograde or inverse solubility, and exists when a salt’s dissolution is exothermic; this can be explained because, according to Le Chatelier’s principle, extra heat will cause the equilibrium for an exothermic process to shift towards the reactants.
