Question

when a solid dissolves in a liquid , the volume of the liquid _____________(changes/does not changes)

Answer 1

When a solid dissolves in a liquid, the volume of the liquid does not changes.

Dissolution of solid in liquid:

• When we add a solid substance to a liquid, the particles solid get into the spaces between the liquid particles.
• So, since the solids occupy the spaces inside liquid atoms, the volume of the liquid doesn't increase.
• Example: Sugar dissolves in water completely at different levels.

Hence, When a solid dissolves in a liquid, the volume of the liquid does not changes.
