The solubility of a sample will decrease when the size of the sample increases.

When the Size of sample is bigger, it means there is more particles that make up that sample so the amount of solvent to dissolve the sample will also be in the greater amount. Thus, when the sample size increases the solubility decrease. We can also say that size of sample and solubility are inversely proportional to each other.
