What's the difference between solubility and volubility?

Solubility


Definition:

  • (n.) The quality, condition, or degree of being soluble or solvable; as, the solubility of a salt; the solubility of a problem or intricate difficulty.
  • (n.) The tendency to separate readily into parts by spurious articulations, as the pods of tick trefoil.
