Solution

Solubility:
(1)Solubility is the property of a particular solute to dissolve in a particular solvent.
(2)The amount of solute that can be dissolved in 100 mL of water is called solubility of the substance at that temperature.
Therefore,solubility is the amount of solute that can dissolve in 100 mL of water.
