Solution

The effects of pressure are significant in affecting the solubility of gases in liquids.

  • Solids & Liquids: The effects of pressure changes on the solubility of solids and liquids are negligible.

  • Gases: The effects of pressure on the solubility of gases in liquids can best be described through a combination of Henrys law and Le Châtelier principle. Henry's law dictates that when temperature is constant, the solubility of the gas corresponds to it's partial pressure. Consider the following formula of Henry's law:

(at a constant temperature) when the partial pressure decreases, the concentration of gas in the liquid decreases as well, and consequently the solubility also decreases. Conversely, when the partial pressure increases in such a situation, the concentration of gas in the liquid will increase as well; the solubility also increases.

temperature -- For liquids and solid solutes, increasing the temperature not only increases the amount of solute that will dissolve but also increases the rate at which the solute will dissolve. For gases, the reverse is true. An increase in temperature decreasesboth solubility and rate of solution

Amount of solute is already dissolved-when you have very littile solute is dissolved in solution, disolving occure quckly.when you have lot of solute is dissolvde then disolving occure very slowly.

size of the partcle-when a solute disolves the action is occure on the surface of each partcle.when the surface area of partcle increases then disolving occure rapidly.for this breaking a solute in to smaller partcle for increase suraface area.
