Which of the following best describes the solubility of a solute in a particular solvent?
A
The total volume of solution formed when a solute is added to a solvent
B
The concentration of solute in a saturated solution at any temperature
C
The rate at which a solute dissolves in a solvent
D
The maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature and pressure
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that solubility refers to how much solute can dissolve in a solvent under specific conditions, such as temperature and pressure.
Recognize that solubility is not about the total volume of the solution formed, but rather about the quantity of solute that can be dissolved.
Distinguish solubility from the rate of dissolution, which describes how fast a solute dissolves, not how much can dissolve.
Identify that solubility is best described as the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature and pressure.
Summarize that this maximum amount corresponds to the concentration of solute in a saturated solution under those conditions.
