Outline the effect of:
- temperature
- pressure
on the solubility of gases and salts
- For gases:
- Solubility increases as gas pressure increases.
- Solubility decreases as temperature increases.
- For salts:
- Solubility is largely unaffected by pressure.
- Solubility increases as temperature increases.
Increase in Pressure: | Increase in Temperature: | |
Effect on Gas Solubility: | Increase | Decrease |
Effect on Salt Solubility: | No noticeable effect | Increase |
