Expert Solution

Step 1

Solubility

The amount of solute present in a one-liter solution is known as solubility. The solubility of a solute depends on several factors. The solubility of a compound depends on the nature of the solute and the solvent. If the nature of both solvent and solute is the same (either both polar or both nonpolar) the salute will be more soluble in that solvent.
