Explain why solvent-solvent, solute-solute and solute-solvent interactions are important in determining the extent to which a solute dissolves in a solvent.
Answer:
The process of a solute dissolving in a solvent is called dissolution. Dissolution depend on the temperature because increasing temperture dissolution is also increase.
Dissolution also depend on the nature of the solute and solvent.
In the dissolution process, solute-solute, solvent-solvent interactions are established. The solubility of a solute thus, depends on the strength of new solute-solvent interactions relative to the strengths of solute-solute and solvent-solvent interactions.
