Correct Answer: Option n
Explanation:
(a) Solubility is the maximum amount of solute that would dissolve / be contained in 1 dm\(^3\) of solution at a given temperature.
(b)(i)
(ii) At 35° solubility = 0.50 to 0.55 moldm\(^{-3}\) range
(iii) Solubility @ 55°C = 0.95 to 0.98 moldm\(^{-3}\)
1 moldm\(^{-3}\) of salt Z = 0.97; 100 = 97g
100cm\(^{-3}\) will contain = \(\frac{97 \times 100}{100}\) = 9.7g
Solubility @ 35°C = 0.54moldm\(^{-3}\)
1 drn\(^{-3}\) contain = 0.54 x 100 = 54g
100cm\(^{-3}\) will contain 54 x100 = 5.4g
10 Mass of salt that would crystallize out = 9.7 - 5.4 = 4.3g
