Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
For salt X, from the graph, 80g of X dissolves by 349K, so by 353K, all 80g of X is dissolved totally in 100g of water.Â
For salt Y, from the graph, 64g of Y dissolves by 353K, so (80-64)g of Y is left undissolved. This is 16g of Y left undissolved at that temperature.
For salt X, from the graph, 80g of X dissolves by 349K, so by 353K, all 80g of X is dissolved totally in 100g of water.Â
For salt Y, from the graph, 64g of Y dissolves by 353K, so (80-64)g of Y is left undissolved. This is 16g of Y left undissolved at that temperature.
