Question

According to table g, which substance forms an unsaturated solution when 80. grams of the substance are stirred into 100. grams of h2o at 10.°c?

Answer 1

A saturated solution is one in which no more solute is able to dissolve in a given solvent at a particular temperature. Some amount of the solute is left undissolved in the solution.

Unsaturated solution has solute in lower proportions than required to form a saturated solution.

Supersaturated solution has solute in amounts greater than a saturated solution.

We can take the help of solubility curve in order to find out the amount of a salt required to prepare a saturated solution of that salt at a particular temperature.

The solubility of KI at 10$^{0}C$ is 136 g/ 100 mL water

The solubility of $KNO_{3}$ at $10^{0}C$ is 21 g/100 mL water.

The solubility of $NaNO_{3}$ at $10^{0}C$ is 80 g/100 mL water.

The solubility of NaCl at $10^{0}C$ is 38 g/ 100 mL water.

So the correct answer will be KI, as it would need 136 g KI / 100 mL water to form a saturated solution at $10^{0}C$.So, if we have 80g KI/ 100mL water it would be an unsaturated solution.

Answer 2

(A) KI
