Why is surface area a factor of dissolution?
Because only the surface contacts the fluid, so that's the only place where dissolution can proceed.
Does the shape of a cell affect the surface area?
Yes.
How does surface area affect the cooling curve?
put it in the fridge
How does dividing a solid into smaller pieces affect surface area?
It increases it.
How mass affect surface area?
Mass has no direct effect on the surface area of an object. You can increase mass without changing anything other property of an object. Volume, Size, and Shape effect surface area.
Does surface area affect how fast a substance dissolves?
Yes, it is normal; a great surface area improve the speed of dissolution.
What is the relationship between surface area and dissolution rate?
In general, the dissolution rate is directly proportional to surface area. This is because the surface area tells you how much solute is exposed to the solvent. The greater the surface area, the more solute molecules that can bind to the solvent molecules, which means more dissolution.
How does surface area impact dissolution?
A material with a great surface area is dissolved faster.
Why is surface area a factor of dissolution?
Because only the surface contacts the fluid, so that's the only place where dissolution can proceed.
Why does crushing help a solid solute dissolve?
The rate of dissolution of a solid is dependent on the surface area reaction. By crushing the cube, the surface area is greatly increased, thus increasing the rate of dissolution.
Does the size of sugar affect the speed at which it dissolves in water?
greater surface area to volume ratio greater the rate of dissolution it will dissolve faster if broken into smaller pieces hence smaller = faster
Increasing the surface area between solute and solvent increases what?
Will increase the rate of dissolution and hence how fast the solute is dissolved.
How does breaking up a solid speed dissolving in liquid?
By breaking up the solid, you are creating more surface area. Therefore, increasing the surface area will speed up dissolution.
How does surface area affect damping of an oscillation?
The larger the surface area, the larger the damping of an oscillation
How does surface area affect the weathering rates?
A great surface area is a factor which favors weathering.
Are Antacid tablets soluble?
This is because the surface area of the tablet is increased.
Will a substance dissolve faster if it is ground into powder first?
The dissolution rate of a substance is affected by the surface area that can react with the liquid it is dissolving in. Powdering it increases the surface area so it increases the dissolving rate.
