As the name implies, anaerobic means there is no presence of oxygen. So if it will take place, it will only take place in little or no oxygen which is in the last sentence in the following choices. First and second choice are wrong for there is a need of oxygen required when there is no oxygen is needed and the presence of nitrogen in water.
Answer:
No, you can not calculate the solubility of X in water at 17 0C.
Explanation:
Solubility refers to the amount of a substance that dissolves in 1000 L of water.
To calculate the solubility of a solute in water, all the water is evaporated and the solid is carefully collected, washed, dried and weighed. The mass of solid obtained can now be used to calculate the solubility of the solute in water as long as there was no loss in mass of solid during the experiment.
In this case, the student threw away part of the solid that precipitated. As a result of this, the mass of solid obtained at the end of the experiment is not exactly the total mass of solute that dissolved in the solvent. Hence, the solubility of X in water at 17 0C can not be accurately calculated.
