How does stirring affect the rate of solution formation?

Hint: Solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more components. Generally solutions are composed of solute and solvent where solute is dissolved in solution and solvent in which solute is dissolved and they both make solution.

Complete step by step answer:
The amount of solute dissolves is generally affected with the temperature, at more temperature solute will easily dissolve this is called solubility of that substance. Stirring is the process by which molecules of the solvent move around and allow them to interact with the solid pieces of undissolved solute and transport the dissolved solute away from the bunk of the solution. While in the absence of stirring the concentration of solute will be highest which is close to the pieces of solute then more solute will not dissolve into the solution until the dissolved solute has been transported away by diffusion.
Hence from the above discussion we can consider that stirring affects the rate of solution formation in the same type as the catalyst does, catalyst increases the rate of reaction similarly stirring quickly dissolves the solute particles in the solution i.e. stirring increases the rate of solution formation. But it will not vary with amount of solute or nature of solute.

Note: To understand clearly about solute and solvent we can consider the example of salt solution in which salt is dissolved in water to make salt solution and here salt is known as a solute and water as a solvent and salt water is an example of solution.
