Do the solubility of all ionic solids increase as temperature increases?

<span>The solubilties of most ionic solids increase as the temperature increases.

Dissolving of a solid in water is, in most cases, an endothermic reaction. In dissolving, as in melting, a solid becomes a liquid. It takes more energy to be a liquid than to be a solid at the same temperature. When the solution becomes saturated at any temperature, a dynamic equilibrium is established between the dissolved and undissolved solid. When heat is added that results in a higher temperature, the extra heat favors the endothermic reaction, and more solid dissolves rather than crystallizes until new equilibrium system is established again. Hence, at a higher temperature, more solid is dissolved in water. This increases the solid's solubility.

Hope this helps mate =)

A force or a type of friction?

Force: Resistance--> If you go swimming, you feel the water pushing against you, making it harder to walk in water and even to swim unless you are doggy pattling or front strokes. Resistance is a force going against a solid object.

Friction: Fluid friction which is friction that occurs after a solid object travels through a liquid or gas
