The Effect of pH on dissolution

Featured Replies

Basically, my friend and I conducted an experiemtn for 10th grade chem in which we used five liquids with different pH levels and measured the time it took for different liquids to dissolve a Jolly Rancher. I'm working on the final paper, and most of it is straight forward, but I can't find any information on the relationship between the pH of solvents and the time it takes to dissolve solutes. Does anyone know of any similar experiments or about the relationship (if there is one)? We found that the more alkaline solvents dissolve the candy faster, which wasn't what we expected. Does it depend on the solute? Can anyone help?
