Why do solids becomes more soluble in water as the temperature increases?

Temperature is a measurement of the average kinetic energy on the atomic or molecular level; hotter substances have faster moving particles. Faster moving particles have more energetic collisions with the particles of which solids are formed, which are more able to knock them out of the solid and into the solution, than slower moving particles would be.


Can particles evaporate?

At room temperature only liquids can be evaporated; increasing the temperature also the solids can be evaporated.


Can all particles evaporate?

At room temperature only liquids can be evaporated; increasing the temperature also the solids can be evaporated.


How can solids become liquids and liquids to solids?

Solids become liquids when the temperature reaches melting point, groups of particles start to brake away from each other. This is when the solid starts becoming a liquid. Liquids become solids on cooling, the particles move slower and become a solid.


Particles in a solid are what?

Metallic solids are composed of individual atoms.


Why do liquids and solids expand with temperature and not compressible like a gas?

Most solids and liquids expand with temperature (ice is an exception - it contracts with increased temperature) because there is more energy in the particles, and therefore they move faster and take up more space. They are not compressible, however, because the particles in solids and liquids are touching each other, and so have a specific volume, unlike gases.


What is different from gas and solid?

Solids: Regular arrangement of particles Tightly packed particles Vibrate about a fixed point (unless at 0 degrees Kelvin) As they increase in temperature, the vibrations become larger Solids have a fixed shape and volume Gases: Randomly moving particles Very fast moving particles Particles are very far apart Gases fill container As they increase in temperature, particles move more quickly


What are solids that have a random arrangement of particles?

amorphous solids


Do particles move slower in cold solids hot solids or hot gases?

Particles move slower in cold solids. In the solids, they are more compact and closer together. Particles move slower as temperature drops, so particles in this case move slowest in cold solids. This is because the higher the temperature the particles receive, the more kinetic energy they get as well, and thus the faster they move. If it helps, try thinking of when your cold. You use energy to warm yourself up by moving around, rubbing your hands, even shivering, this is all in an effort to raise your body temperature, so the more movement, the more energy and therefore the higher temperature! Hope this helps! :)


Are crystalline and amorphous solids?

Crystalline Solids are when the particles form a regular repeating pattern. Amorphous solids have particles that are not arranged in a regular pattern.


How the motion of particles differ in gases liquids and solids.?

The motion of particles in gasses, liquids, and solids are all different. Gas particles can move much more quickly than solids.


What is the relationship between solubility of a gas and a solid vs. temperature.?

When the temperature increase, the kinetic energy of the solid,liquid and gas particles increase. Therefor collisions between solute and solvent particles increase. So solubility of solids increase with temperature. But solubility of gasses decrease.
