Solution
The correct options are A
Size of solute particles
B
Stirring
D
Temperature
The solubility of solids in water depends on the size of solute particles, stirring and temperature.
Smaller solute particles dissolve more easily. Stirring increases the rate of formation of the solution. Generally, the solubility of solids increases with increase in temperature though in some cases it decreases.
Pressure has no significant effect on the solubility of solids in water.
