What happens during the formation of a solution?
What happens during the formation of a solution? In order to form a solution, the solute must be surrounded, or solvated, by the solvent. Solutes successfully dissolve into solvents when solute-solvent bonds are stronger than either solute-solute bonds or solvent-solvent bonds. What are the factors affecting solution? Factors affecting solubility Temperature. Basically, solubility increases with […]
