The figure below shows a container containing saturated solution. If to this beaker we add some more of solvent the solute crystals present at the bottom get dissolved. This is because of:
  • A
    Increase in solubility of the solute.
  • B
    Decrease in solubility of the solute.
  • Increase in volume of solvent.
  • D
    None of the above.

Answer

Correct option: C.
Increase in volume of solvent.

Since more solvent has been added more of solute will get dissolved in it. The decrease in solute crystals is due to increase in volume of solvent.
