Does salt dissolve faster in hot water than in cold water?

Asked by Keturah963

Answer (3)

It dissolves faster in hot water . . . increased temperature increases element reactivity . . . so it will dissolve faster as a result of the increased temperature

Yes, salt does dissolve faster in hot water compared to cold water. This happens because the particles in a solution move faster at higher temperatures, aiding in a faster** dissolution process.** The increase in temperature enhances the solubility of the solid (salt in this case) in the liquid (water). ;

Yes, salt dissolves faster in hot water than in cold water due to the increased movement of water molecules at higher temperatures. This leads to more frequent and forceful collisions with the salt, allowing it to break apart more quickly. Higher temperatures also increase the solubility of salts, enabling a greater amount to dissolve.
