Description : How dissolution takes place by hydration?

Last Answer : Ans: When an ionic compound is dissolved in water+ve hydrogen atoms of water molecule surrounds the –ve ions of solute, & -ve oxygen atoms surrounds the +ve ions and thus hold it in the dissolved form. This process is called hydration.

Description : Why water is called as “Universal Solvent”?

Last Answer : Ans: Because it can dissolve a lot of things in it, due to presence of strong cohesive forces in it and it’s ability to form H-bonding and hydration with solutes.

Description : Why solubility of gases is lesser in liquids?

Last Answer : Ans: Gas molecules are far apart, so they have weak attractive forces among their own molecules & also have less attraction for solvent molecules as well. So they have lesser solubility in liquids.
