Question

Solubility of a substance is its maximum amount that can be dissolved in a specified amount of solvent. It depends upon:

(i) nature of solute (ii) nature of solvent
(iii) temperature (iv) pressure

• A. (i), (ii) and (iii)
• B. (i), (iii) and (iv)
• C. (i) and (iv)
• D. (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv)

Answer 1

The correct option is D (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv)

solubility depends on the following factors:

1.nature of solute and solvent : it depends on their polarity, we know that like dissolves like.

2.temperature : as temperature increases solubility increases.

3.Pressure : Raoult's law and Henry's law

hence option D is the correct answer.
