Sketch a curve to show how the solubility of a gas varies with increasing temperature

Assessment: WAEC SSCE - Chemistry - 1991 (Essay) Subject: Chemistry

Question 1 Report

 Sketch a curve to show how the solubility of a gas varies with increasing temperature

Answer Details

Solubility of a gas against temperature

For a gas dissolved in water, solubility decreases as temperature increases. Heating gives gas particles more kinetic energy, so they escape from the liquid more easily.

Temperature Solubility of gas low high high low

Examination point: label the horizontal axis as temperature and the vertical axis as solubility, then draw a smooth downward-sloping curve.
