  2. Solubility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility

    The solubility of a specific solute in a specific solvent is generally expressed as the concentration of a saturated solution of the two. [1] Any of the several ways of expressing concentration of solutions can be used, such as the mass, volume, or amount in moles of the solute for a specific mass, volume, or mole amount of the solvent or of the solution.

  3. Solubility equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility_equilibrium

    When dissolution is exothermic (heat is released) solubility decreases with rising temperature. [1] Sodium sulfate shows increasing solubility with temperature below about 32.4 °C, but a decreasing solubility at higher temperature. [2] This is because the solid phase is the decahydrate (Na 2 SO 4 ·10H

  4. Enthalpy change of solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enthalpy_change_of_solution

    The temperature of the solution eventually decreases to match that of the surroundings. The equilibrium, between the gas as a separate phase and the gas in solution, will by Le Châtelier's principle shift to favour the gas going into solution as the temperature is decreased (decreasing the temperature increases the solubility of a gas).

  5. Henry's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry's_law

    Solubility of permanent gases usually decreases with increasing temperature at around room temperature. However, for aqueous solutions, the Henry's law solubility constant for many species goes through a minimum. For most permanent gases, the minimum is below 120 °C.

  6. Supersaturation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supersaturation

    In most cases solubility decreases with decreasing temperature; in such cases the excess of solute will rapidly separate from the solution as crystals or an amorphous powder. [2] [3] [4] In a few cases the opposite effect occurs. The example of sodium sulfate in water is well-known and this was why it was used in early studies of solubility.

  7. Calcium sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_sulfate

    Temperature dependence of the solubility of calcium sulfate (3 phases) in pure water. The solubility of calcium sulfate decreases as temperature increases. This behaviour ("retrograde solubility") is uncommon: dissolution of most of the salts is endothermic and their solubility increases with temperature

  8. Solvent effects - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent_effects

    An increase in solvent polarity decreases the rates of reactions where there is less charge in the activated complex in comparison to the starting materials A change in solvent polarity will have little or no effect on the rates of reaction when there is little or no difference in charge between the reactants and the activated complex.

  9. Common-ion effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common-ion_effect

    Its solubility in pure water is 7.32 x 10 −4 M. However in a solution that is 0.0200 M in barium nitrate, Ba(NO 3) 2, the increase in the common ion barium leads to a decrease in iodate ion concentration. The solubility is therefore reduced to 1.40 x 10 −4 M, about five times smaller. [1]
