In exothermic reactions, increasing temperature decreases the solubility of the solute. This is because heat energy is released when the solute dissolves in solution. Increasing temperature introduces more heat into the system. So according to Le Chatelier’s Principle, the system will adjust to this excess in heat energy by inhibiting the dissolution reaction.
An example of a solute that decreases in solubility with increasing temperature is calcium hydroxide which can be used in medical situations to treat chemical burns and as an antacid.
