At constant temperature, solubility of which of the following substances decreases with increase in temperature ?
The solubility of COâ‚‚ in water decreases with an increase in temperature. This is because the dissolution of COâ‚‚ in water is an exothermic process, and according to Le Chatelier's principle, an increase in temperature shifts the equilibrium towards the endothermic direction, decreasing the solubility.
