with the increase in tempererature solubility of solid increases but only upto the point of saturation after the saturation is achieved then if we put more solute in liquid then precipitates would be formed.

Answer:
The solubility of solid in liquid increase with increase the temperature.
For exothermic process decreases and for endothermic process increases with increase in temperature.
Explanation:
Solubility can be defined as the maximum amount of solute dissolved in liquid solvent at a particular temperature and pressure. Generally, the solute particles are held by intermolecular force of attraction. With increase the temperature, the kinetic energy of particles increases as result the solubility increases.
According to Le Chatelier's principle, it depends upon the type of dissolution.
- In the dissolving process, if the heat liberated is more than the heat required to break the bonds of solid, then the process is exothermic. The excess of heat is already produced so if the additional heat will be inhibited, then solubility decreases.
- In the dissolving process, if the heat liberated is lesser than the heat required to break the bonds of solid, then the process will be endothermic. Now, if the additional heat is given to the solution by increasing the temperature, will provide the more energy to break the bonds of solid. As results, the solubility will increase.
