Solubility of $K B r$ shows slow rise of solubility with ___________ (increase/decrease) in temperature.

Open in App

Solution

For many solids dissolved in liquid water like $K B r$ , the solubility increases with temperature.
The increase in kinetic energy that comes with higher temperatures allows the solvent molecules to break apart the solute molecules that are held together by intermolecular attractions.
Therefore, the solubility of KBr shows slow with an increase in temperature.
