Solubility increases with temperature.

When you heat up the solution, the kinetic energy of the particles increase helping them to dissolve. For instance, in the case of a solid such as Na2SO4, the solid has to dissociate into ions in solution. At higher temperatures, there will be enough energy for the ion dissociation. Therefore solubility will increase. But in the case of exothermic reactions, the solubility might possibly decrease with increasing temperature.

yes well i believe a higher temperature does affect solubility it makes things dissolve like when we put sugar in tea we dont feel the bumpy bits cause it dissolves !! dont ask me im trying to find the awnser on the internet for my homework!!lol
