how is solubility related to temperature?
.
Please an expert answer properly the expert is not answering to my question and closing the question without answering

Dear student,

For many solids dissolved in liquid water, the solubility increases with temperature. The increase in kinetic energy that comes with higher temperatures allows the solvent molecules to more effectively break apart the solute molecules that are held together by intermolecular attractions.
Thus, increasing the temperature generally increases the solubilities of substances. For example, sugar and salt are more soluble in water at higher temperatures. However, as the temperature increases, the solubility of a gas in a liquid decreases.

When the temperature increases the solubility also increases whereas when the temperature decreases the solubility decreases.
