simple definition for solubility

Vandana · Accepted Answer

Dear student Solubility: It is a chemical property of which
refferes to the ability of a given substance(solute) to dissolve in
a solvent Or , in other words it is a property of a solid, liquid,
or gas called as solute to dissolve in a solvent like solid liquid
or gas, to form a homogeneous solution It is measured in terms of
maximum amount of solute dissolved in a solvent at equilibrium At,
this condition the solution is saturated The solubility depends on
nature of solute and solvent, temperature and pressure and
according to the dissolved amount of solute , the solution may be
unsaturated, saturated or supersaturated However, solubility may
vary from infinitely soluble to for ex: solution of ethanol in
water to poorly soluble for ex: solution of silver chloride in
water Hope it is clear Regards
