Question

What is the definition of solubility for a solid in water?

Answer

The maximum mass of solute that can dissolve in a given mass of solvent (usually 100 g) at a specified temperature to form a saturated solution.

Question

If the solubility of KClO₃ is 10 g per 100 g of water at 30°C, how much can dissolve in 50 g of water at the same temperature?

Answer

5 grams. Calculation: (10 g / 100 g) × 50 g = 5 g.

Question

How do you calculate the mass of solute that can dissolve in a different mass of solvent when you know the solubility per 100 g?

Answer

Use a proportion: (Solubility in g / 100 g solvent) = (X g / Given solvent mass). Then solve for X.

Question

Using the same solubility data (10 g/100 g H₂O at 30°C), what is the maximum mass of KClO₃ that can dissolve in 200 g of water?

Answer

20 grams. (10 g/100 g) × 200 g = 20 g.
