The maximum amount of a solid solute that can be dissolved in a specified amount of a given liquid solvent does not depend upon ____________.
The maximum amount of a solid solute that can be dissolved in a specified amount of a given liquid solvent does not depend upon ____________.

(i) Temperature

(ii) Nature of solute

(iii) Pressure

(iv) Nature of solvent

 

Correct Answer: (iii) Pressure

Explanation: Changes in pressure do not affect the solubility of solids and the liquids that we ignore because the pressure of solids and liquids is almost negligible or very small compared to gases to make them dissolve by increasing the pressure in liquids as easy as liquid gases.
