* Solubility: It's expressed as the maximum amount of solute (NaI in this case) that can dissolve in a given amount of solvent (water) at a specific temperature.
* For NaI: At room temperature (around 20°C), you can dissolve approximately 184 grams of NaI in 100 grams of water.
* Factors affecting solubility:
* Temperature: Solubility generally increases with temperature. This means you can dissolve more NaI in hot water than in cold water.
* Pressure: Pressure has a negligible effect on the solubility of solids like NaI in liquids.
Key point: Sodium iodide is considered a very soluble salt in water. This means it readily dissolves and forms a clear solution.
