Generally, what happens to the rate of dissolution for a solid solute when you change from stirring a solution to not stirring it?

Sagot :

stirring increases the dissolution because
 when the solution become saturated ,, solute particles can not come in contact with the solvent particles near the surface so stirring increases their movement so fresh solute is ready to contact with solvent...

Explanation:

When we stir a solute in a solution then number of collisions between the solute and solvent increases. As a result, rate of dissolution of the solid increases as rate of reaction increases.

On the other hand, when we do not stir a solution then there will be no collisions between the molecules of solute and solvent. As a result, solute will not dissolve into the solution.

Thus, we can conclude that there will be decrease in rate of dissolution.
