There is no such thing as "surface area" of "solubility" since the latter refers to the maximum concentration in the solution of a solid (or liquid) in a liquid. "Surface area", as applied to such a phenomenon is meaningless. However, by *increasing* the surface area of, say, a salt, by grinding it, will increase its solubility. Maybe *that* is what the questioner meant.

What property of surface area and solubility?

In: Math, Geometry [chemistry]


What happens to the solubility of carbon dioxide in water when the surface area of the solution-gas interface is doubled?

Nothing. Solubility depends of temperature and pressure, not surface area. At the same temperature and pressure C02 has the same solubility, whether you have 10 cm square surface area or 1000 cm2. Maybe you meant the rate of diffusion?


How particle size affect solubility?

Particle size affects solubility. When particle size is small, the surface area per unit volume is larger, thus the solubility is increased.


What are the factors affecting the states of matter?

Concentration, Surface Area, Inhibitor, A Catalyst, Solubility


How does the size of the particles affect the solubility of the solute?

Particle size affects solubility. When particle size is small, the surface area per unit volume is larger, thus the solubility is increased.


What 5 factors influence the melting point of an organic compound?

Factors affecting the solubility:1. the nature of solute/solvent (chemical composition, polarity)2. temperature3. pressure4. stirring5. surface area of the solute6. some added compounds7. amount of the solute 8. the geometry of the beaker


Which variables affect solubility?

Heat will increase solubility of solids but not for gases, pressure will increase solubility of gases, surface area of solids increases solubility, agitation increases solubility. __________________________________________________________ Well it depends on what experiment you are doing but i say it would be between the independent variable and the dependent variable.


What is the effect of factors on the solubility of a solid solute in a liquid solvent?

The most important effect is temperature. As temperature increases, the solubility of most solid solutes increases. At different temperature, the Ksp value for salts fluctuates. With the Ksp value of the solute, you can determine the concentrations of the ions formed. Surface area also plays an important part. The more surface area, the faster a solute will dissolve

Some factors that impact solubility are temperature, surface area, polarity, and pressure. As education-portal states:"To summarize:Like dissolves likeGreater surface area increases dissolvabilityTemperature increases dissolvabilityEnthalpy and entropy affect dissolvability of salts"


How is polarity related to surface tension?

Water cohesion causes surface tension related to solubility. Polarity is also related to solubility in that polar substances dissolve better in polar solvents, such as water.
