Talan Whitney · Answer 1

the solubility increases

Explanation:

The solubility of any ionic compound is due to the ionization of the compound and then the strong ion-dipole interactions acting between the ions and the solvent.

Thus, solubility also depends on the extent of the ionization of the salt.

The more the salt ionizes, the more there is ion-dipole interaction between the ions the solvent and more is the solubility.
