Question

the ability of sugar to dissolve in water is called_________________?

Answer 1

Answer:

the ability of sugar to dissolve in water is called solubility.

Answer 2

• The ability of sugar to dissolve in water is called solubility.

SOLUBILITY:

• Solubility is the ability of a solid, liquid, or gaseous chemical substances to dissolve in the solvent and form a solution.
• The solubility of the substances depends on the solvent used as well as temperture and pressure.
• The degree of solubility ranges widely depending on the substances from in-finitely soluble such as ethanol in water, to poorly soluble such as silver chloride in water.
• Solubility does not depends on the particle size:given enough time , even large particles will eventually dissolved.

                  eg,. salt, ethanol, sugar.

FACTORS AFFECTING SOLUBILITY:

• Temperature
• Pressure
• Polarity
• Solubility chart

APPLICATION OF SOLUBILITY:

       Salting out of soap:

               The important applications of solubility products is salting out of soap. Soap is sodium salt of higher fatty acid. It is precipitated from the solution by adding concentrated solution of NaCl.
