• solution

• solvent

Multiple Choice

In a glass of lemonade, which of the following is the solvent?

• Lemons

• Sugar

• Water

Multiple Choice

Why does increased the temperature increase the rate at which a solute will dissolve?

• Because the faster moving particles undergo chemical reactions faster

• Because heat causes the particles to move faster, thereby increasing the rate at which solute particle come in contact with solvent particles

Multiple Choice

Why does decreasing the size of the solute particles increase the rate of dissolving?

• Because decreasing the size of the solute decreases the amount of surface area exposes to the solvent, in relation to the volume of the solute.

• Because decreasing the size of the solute increases the amount of surface area exposed to the solvent, in relation to the volume of the solute.

Multiple Choice

Why does stirring increase the rate of dissolving?

• Because stirring forces the solute and solvent to come in contact with each other.

• Because stirring prevents the solute and solvent from coming in contact with each other.
