Use the solubility curve provided on the right to determine the answers to the following questions: Solubility Curves for Selected Solutes How many grams of solute are required to saturate 100 g of water in each of the following solutions? a) KCL at 80"C b) KCIOz at 90"C c) NaNOs at 10"C SOz at 20 "C e) NH-Cl at 70"C 150 140 130 120 110 NaNO; 100 KNO, 80 1 Hcl NHacl What is each of the solutions below: NH; Kcll saturated, unsaturated or 40 supersaturated? All of the solutes are Nacl KcIOg mixed with 100 g of water: 40 g of NaCl at 50"C b. 30 g of NHs at 30"C SO 70 8 of HCI at 20"C 30 40 50 60 70 90 100 d, 80 g of KNOs at 60"C Temperature (PC) 80 g of NH-Cl at 80"C (ii) nature of the solvent ((intermolecular forces) (iii) temperature (solubility curves) (i) Using less than the tabulated mass of solute in 100 mL water results in an unsaturated solution. (ii) Using the same, or greater, mass of solute than that tabulated in 100 mL of water results in a saturated solution.
Water is a commonly used solvent, so it is very useful to construct a table of solubilities based on the mass of a solute that will dissolve in a given volume of water.
Solubility tables (tables of solubility) usually tabulate the maximum mass in grams of the solute that can be dissolved in 100 mL of water. This data in the table is relevant only to the temperature given for the table. Commonly, solubility data is given for 25°C.
A solute is usually considered to be soluble in water if more than 1.0 g can be dissolved in 100 mL of water. A solute is usually considered to be insoluble in water if less than 0.1 g can be dissolved in 100 mL of water. It is important to note that "insoluble" does NOT necessarily mean that the solute cannot be dissolved, it only means that an extremely small amount of the solute can be dissolved in the solvent. A solute is usually considered to be slightly soluble, or sparingly soluble, in water if between 0.1 and 1.0 g can be dissolved in 100 mL of water. The solubility table below gives the maximum mass of solute in grams that can be dissolved in 100 mL of water at 25°C.
Sodium chloride, NaCl, is a soluble salt. From the solubility table above we see that the solubility of sodium chloride is 36 g/100 mL water at 25°C.
