Solubility is the property of a solid, liquid, or gaseous chemical substance called solute to dissolve in a liquid solvent to form a homogeneous solution. The solubility of a substance strongly depends on the used solvent as well as on temperature and pressure. The extent of the solubility of a substance in a specific solvent is measured as the saturation concentration where adding more solute does not increase the concentration of the solution. The solvent is generally a liquid, which can be a pure substance or a mixture.[1] One also speaks of solid solution, but rarely of solution in a gas (see vapor-liquid equilibrium instead) The extent of solubility ranges widely, from infinitely soluble (fully miscible[2] ) such as ethanol in water, to poorly soluble, such as silver chloride in water. The term insoluble is often applied to poorly or very poorly soluble compounds.
When a solution forms, energy is often released or absorbed depending on the nature of the solute-solvent interactions. If the solution formation is exothermic, heat is released into the surroundings, raising the temperature of the water. Conversely, an endothermic solution formation absorbs heat from the surroundings, resulting in a decrease in temperature.
The term is "precipitation." It refers to a process where a solid substance forms from a solution due to a chemical reaction or a change in conditions, such as temperature.

No, HCl (hydrochloric acid) is a clear, colorless liquid at room temperature and is not a precipitate. A precipitate is a solid that forms when two solutions react chemically and forms a solid product that separates out of the solution.
As the saturated solution is gradually cooled, the solubility of the solute decreases. This would lead to the excess solute in the solution crystallizing out as solid particles. The process is known as precipitation, where the solute forms crystals as it becomes insoluble at the lower temperature.
The product formed is mercury(II) acetate, which is a compound with the chemical formula Hg(C2H3O2)2. It is a white crystalline solid at room temperature.
A solution can take in energy, which is heat.
The lowest temperature of the day is usually felt at sunrise.
oil forms by time, decayed plants and animals and the right temperature !
A base forms hydroxide ions (OH-) in solution. This is because bases release hydroxide ions when dissolved in water, leading to an increase in the concentration of hydroxide ions in the solution.
The answer depends on the temperature of what. An increase of 6 degrees C in the body temperature would, in most cases, prove to be very serious. A similar increase in the temperature of the sun would go unnoticed. An increase of that magnitude in the average surface temperature on earth is likely to be catastrophic for human beings though not all life forms.

To precipitate a soluble complex, you can add a precipitating agent that forms a less soluble compound with one of the components of the complex. This can cause the complex to become insoluble and precipitate out of the solution. The choice of precipitating agent will depend on the specific complex you are dealing with.
No, starch added to water at room temperature forms a colloidal suspension, not a true solution. The starch particles do not fully dissolve in the water but dispersed throughout, leading to a cloudy mixture rather than a clear solution.
No, new igneous rock forms from the melting of pre-existing rock due to an increase in temperature with depth. If Earth's temperature did not increase with depth, there would not be enough heat to melt rocks and form new igneous rock.
Any more solute added to the water without changing the temperature forms crystals at the bottom of the solution.

Ammonia is a gas that, when dissolved in water, forms an alkaline solution. It acts as a weak base and can increase the pH of the solution.
