Answer:

in higher temperatures the molecules will increase however in colder temperatures the molecules will decreasing and eventually melt. (more info below)

Step-by-step explanation:

if the water is hot, the average kinetic energy of its molecules will increase. As a consequence, the solution is capable of extracting additional ions from the surface of the solute. As a result, temperature increases the solubility of substances. Sugar and salt, for example, are more soluble in water at higher temperatures.When the temperature of the solution changes, the total kinetic energy of the molecules that make up the solution often decreases.The enhanced friction (kinetic energy) of the molecules of the solute allows them to be less able to stay on and therefore melt more quickly.

hope this helped!
