Question

How does solubility vary with different solvents and different temperatures?

Answer 1

Hint: Always like dissolves in like means polar compounds soluble in polar solvents and nonpolar compounds are going to get soluble in nonpolar solvents. Temperature also affects the solubility of the compounds.

Complete answer:
- In the question it is asked how solubility of the compounds are going to vary with different solvent and different temperatures.
- The complete dissociation of one compound in a particular solvent is called solubility of the compound.
- We know that polar compounds are going to soluble in polar solvents like water.
- Nonpolar compounds are going to be soluble in nonpolar solvents like chloroform, benzene etc.
- Means solubility of the compounds is going to depend on the polar nature of the solvent and the compound.
- Coming to the concept of temperature.
- Few compounds possess less solubility in both the types of solvents.
- At that time temperature is the factor going to play a big role.
- Some compounds by heating they try to gain the property of solubility.
- Few compounds will get soluble in a particular solvent at lower temperature and few other compounds will get soluble at higher temperature.
- This is how the solvent and temperature affect the property of the solubility.

Note:
Polar solvents ionize the compounds and make them to dissolve but non polar solvent don’t ionizes the compounds to get them to solubilize. Nonpolar solvents make the compounds soluble by forming a weak Vander waal force of attraction.
