Solution

The correct option is B

False


The solubility of many solid solutes in water increases with an increase in temperature because an increase in temperature will increase the vibrational kinetic energy of solute molecules which causes them to dissolve more readily because they are less able to hold together.

For example:- While making tea, sugar dissolves in hot water quickly.
