How can solubility generally be expressed?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Maximum solute dissolved in a fixed amount of solvent at a fixed temperature
Solubility is the maximum amount of a solute that dissolves in a specified amount of solvent at a specified temperature, and where relevant, pressure. It may be reported in units such as grams per 100 grams of solvent or molarity-based forms, depending on the convention. Colour, container appearance and the name of the liquid do not define this quantitative property.
