Question

The process of dissolving substance in a given solvent is called ____________.

Answer 1

• Solubility - The process of dissolving a substance in a given solvent is called solubility.
• The amount of solute dissolved in a definite quantity of solvent depends on the nature of both solute and solvent.
• The maximum amount of solute in gram, which can dissolve in 100 gm of solvent at given temperatures is called its solubility.

$Solubility=\frac{Massofsolute}{Massofsolvent}\times 100$

Therefore the process of dissolving a substance in a given solvent is called solubility.
