Which factor increases the rate of dissolution in an unsaturated solution?
increasing the temperature
decreasing the surface area
decreasing the amount of solute
increasing the amount of solvent

Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An unsaturated solution is a solution in which solute particles completely dissolve into the solvent.

And, in order to increase the rate of dissolution of an unsaturated solution we can increase the temperature. Hence, there will be increase in kinetic energy of molecules which will lead to more number of collisions.

Thus, it will eventually lead to increase in rate of dissolution.

Thus, we can conclude that increasing the temperature is the factor which increases the rate of dissolution in an unsaturated solution.

quartz

explanation:

answer is: naturally occurring solid, inorganic compound or element is mineral.

minerals usually have crystalline form, that means than crystal constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.

for example magnetite is a mineral of iron oxide (fe₂o₃).

calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (caco₃).

dolomite is an   carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (camg(co₃)₂).
