16. If you pound the granules of sugar before adding it in your cup of coffee, does it affect the solubility?
a. No, it has really no effect on solubility because we did no heat it at all.
b. Yes, it has increased the surface area so it speeds up the dissolving process.
c. Yes, it decreases the solubility.
d. Yes, it has increased the surface area and so it increases the maximum solubility.

17. Which statement about the process of dissolving is true?

a. The process of dissolving releases energy in the form of heat.
b. Applying heat often speeds up the process of dissolving because it
breaks down the repellent barrier of the solute particles.
c. Once a solute, such as a salt crystals, is dissolved in a solvent, it can
never return to its original crystal state?
d. the solute spreads out in all direction in a solvent because the
solvent and solute particles affect the other.
