A solubility curve is a graphical representation of the solubility of a particular solute in a given solvent with respect to varying temperatures.
It is said that the solute which dissolves to its best in a solvent have similar chemical structures.
Chemists often use the technique of liquid-liquid extraction to identify the solubilities of compounds to separate and purify them from reaction mixtures.
In laboratories, the synthesis of chemical compounds in milligrams or in tons, make use of the relative solubilities of the concerned product. Also, the solubilities of the unreacted starting materials, the by-products, and the side products are also studied to achieve separation.
