Answer: <span>A fewer number of particles of the sample will dissolve in 1 minute.

That is because normally the solubility and rate of solubility of the salts in water increase with the temperature. This is, the higher the temperature the higher and faster the number of particles that the water can dissolve. So, at 70°C more particles will be dissolved in water in 1 minute than at 20°C.
