Ability of a substance to dissolve
A
solubility
B
physical property
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Solubility is an ability of a substance to dissolve. In the process of dissolving, the substance which is being dissolved is called a solute and the substance in which the solute is dissolved is called a solvent. A mixture of solute and solvent is called a solution.

Detailed explanation-2: -Solubility is the ability of a solid, liquid, or gaseous chemical substance (referred to as the solute) to dissolve in solvent (usually a liquid) and form a solution. The solubility of a substance fundamentally depends on the solvent used, as well as temperature and pressure.

Detailed explanation-3: -Solubility is a Characteristic Property of a Substance The extent to which a substance dissolves in a given amount of water over a range of temperatures is called the solubility of that substance.

Detailed explanation-4: -Solubility is a property referring to the ability for a given substance, the solute, to dissolve in a solvent.

Detailed explanation-5: -Posted April 18, 2022. Solubility is affected by 4 factors – temperature, pressure, polarity, and molecular size. Solubility increases with temperature for most solids dissolved in liquid water. This is because higher temperatures increase the vibration or kinetic energy of the solute molecules.
