Answer: -
Solubility of a substance depend on the balance of intermolecular forces between the solvent and solute, and the entropy change that accompanies this process.
Temperature and pressure also plays a role in solubility.
A solution having Group 1 cations like lithium, sodium, potassium etc are always soluble.
A solution having NH₄⁺ is soluble.
All salts with anion as nitrates, acetates, chlorates, and perchlorates are soluble in water.
Answer:
The change in entropy is -1083.112 joules per kilogram-Kelvin.
Explanation:
If the water is cooled reversibly with no phase changes, then there is no entropy generation during the entire process. By the Second Law of Thermodynamics, we represent the change of entropy (
), in joules per gram-Kelvin, by the following model:
(1)
Where:
- Mass, in kilograms.
- Specific heat of water, in joules per kilogram-Kelvin.
, 
- Initial and final temperatures of water, in Kelvin.
If we know that 
, 
, 
and 
, then the change in entropy for the entire process is:
The change in entropy is -1083.112 joules per kilogram-Kelvin.
For what? what is your question
You would want to make sure that you have controlled the variables properly, and if you determine that you did then you would repeat the experiment to be sure of the results.
