Question 1

what is solubility?

Answer 1

the maximum mass of a solute that dissolves in 100g of solvent

Question 2

what is solubility measured in?

Answer 2

grams per 100g of solvent

Question 3

what is a solubility curve?

Answer 3

a graph of solubility vs temperature

Question 4

how would you investigate how temperature affects solubility?

Answer 4

measure solubility as normal at different tempratures

Question 5

how do you calculate solubility?

Answer 5

solubility = (mass of solid / mass of water removed) x 100
