Question

Which term is the maximum amount of a solute that dissolves in a given amount of solvent at a constant temperature?

A) Solubility

B) Concentration

C) Degree of saturation

Answer 1

I believe it's A) Solubility

solubility:

The amount of a substance that dissolves in a given quantity of solvent at specified conditions of temperature and pressure to produce a saturated solution

Answer 2

Solubility:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solubility:

When the maximum amount of solute is dissolve in the solvent is called solubility. On the basic of solubility the solution are following types:

Saturate solution:

A solution which contains the maximum amount of dissolved solute at the equilibrium is called saturated solution.

Un-saturate solution:

A solution which contains lesser amount of solute as compare to saturated solution. It will be able to dissolver more solute.

Super -Saturate solution:

A solution which contains the more dissolved amount of solute as compare to saturated solution.

Generally the solubility of salt will increases with temperature because as the temperature of solvent increases kinetic energy also increases. Thus the molecules of solvent are fast moving at higher temperature.

Fast moving molecules of solvent will dissolve more molecule of salt.
