What is the total mass of NaNO3 that must be added to 70g in 100 grams of H2O to make a saturated solution at 30°C ?

58g

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, you must take a look at the solubility graph for potassium nitrate.

Now, the solubility graph shows you how much solute can be dissolved per 100g of water in order to make an unsaturated, a saturated, or a supersaturated solution.

You're looking to make a saturated potassium nitrate solution using

50g of water at 60∘C. Your starting point will be to determine how much potassium nitrate can be dissolved in 100g of water at that temperature in order to have a saturated solution.

As you can see, the curve itself represents saturation.

If you draw a vertical line that corresponds to 60∘C and extend it until it intersects the curve, then draw a horizontal line that connects to the vertical axis, you will find that potassium has a solubility of about

115g per 100g of water. Your answer is 58g of potassium nitrate

1. they vary with a higher number because boiling is way hotter than melting

did anyone actually do this? like if anyone has submitted this i rly need .
