Why is the dissolution of AgCl considered endothermic? The solubility constant of $\ce{AgCl}$ at $25\mathrm{\,^{\circ}C}$ degrees is $1.6\cdot 10^{-10}$.

At $100\mathrm{\,^{\circ}C}$, the $K_{\mathrm{sp}}$ increases to $2.15\cdot 10^{-8}$.

Why is the dissolution of $\ce{AgCl}$ at $100\mathrm{\,^{\circ}C}$ considered endothermic? I would have thought it was exothermic.
The typical way of explaining this is using Le Chatelier's Principle. That is, we could consider the reaction,$$\ce{AgCl(s) + heat&lt;=&gt;Ag+(aq) + Cl^-(aq)}$$This then demonstrates that energy in the form of heat is required to have the reaction proceed. Thus, at a higher temerature, the reaction will shift to the right as predicted by Le Chatelier's principle.

There are obviously more thorough explanations possible, but this is a good place to start.
