Answer:
13.75
Explanation:
Density is equal to mass divided by volume. 110/8 = 13.75
c) the salt solubility decreases with temperature.
Salts usually dissolve in water at a given temperature. When water cannot dissolve anymore salt at that same temperature, it is known as a saturation point. With most substances the solubility increases with increase in temperature. Same is the case for a salt like potassium nitrate. With increase in temperature the ability of it to dissolve in water increases. And so with decrease in temperature, the solubility decreases.
Answer:
1) Salts X and Y
2) The solubility of the salts
3) a) The solvent
b) The solvent temperature
Explanation:
1) The independent variable is the variable that is suspected to be the cause of the subject of the investigation
The given investigation is meant to investigate the solubility of different salts
Therefore, the solubility is expected to be dependent on the type of salt, and the independent variable is the type of salt, X or Y
2) The dependent variable is the effect meant to be observed in the investigation, which is the solubility of the salt in water at room temperature
3) The control variables are the variables which are held constant during the investigation, including;
a) The solvent used if the investigation; water
b) The temperature of the solvent; Room temperature
