What mass of KNO3 would be needed to produce a saturated solution of KNO3 in 50g of water at 313K


Page 2

This is the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in water at 313K. The solution is saturated at that temperature.

Mass KNO3 = 62/2 = 31g . KNO3 soluble in 50g H2O at 313K.

A student, while the testing the solubility of potassium nitrate at 313 k, is found that the solubility is 62 in 100 g of water. What masses of potassium nitrate would be needed to produce a saturated solution of potassium nitrate in 50 g of water at313k?

Solubility of potassium nitrate at  313K = 62/100

100 g of water contains potassium nitrate = 62 g

50 g of water contains potassium nitrate  = 62/100 X 50 = 31g

Thus, 31 g potassium nitrate would be needed to produce a saturated solution of potassium nitrate in 50 g of water at 313 K.
