Question

Heating of saturated solution increases the solubility of the solute in the solution.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

As heat supplied to the solution increases, the molecules present in the solution gain kinetic enegry. The increase in kinetic energy that comes with higher temperature allows the solvent molecules to more effectively break apart the solute molecules that are held together by intermolecular attractions. Hence, heating of saturated solution increases the solubility of the solute in the solution.
