==Rules of Solubility==
 +
 +
*If the [[solute]] is a [[solid]], its solubility will increase when it is subjected to increasing temperature.
 +
*If the solute is a [[liquid]], its solubility will not be affected by a change in temperature.
 +
*If the solute is a [[gas]], its solubility will increase when it is subjected to decreasing temperature.
 +
*The solubility of a gas increases with increasing pressure.
 +
*The solubility of liquids and solids is unaffected by changes in pressure.
