Solubility

Breaking the solid into powder increases the area of interaction between solid and the liquid and solubility increases.

Stirring the Solution induces a turbulency in the solution and hence dissolution becomes faster.

Temperature increase has an effect. Kindly refer [here.](https://socratic.org/questions/why-do-solutes-dissolve-better-in-hot-water)
