Answer:
1. Yes
2.The solubility of X is 34.55g/L
Explanation:
Solubility of solute refers to how readily a solute will dissolve in a solvent at a particular temperature. Its the amount of moles or grams required to saturate 1dm or 1 Litre of water.
From the problem, when the liquid was drained off and amount of X which didn't dissolve was measured, it weighed 0.008kg, this means out of 0.027kg, 0.027-0.008 actually dissolved
= 0.019kg*1000 = 19g.
if 19g is required to saturate 550mL at 30°C,
then will saturate 1L
= 34.545g will saturate 1Litre
The solubility thus is 34.55g/L
