1. Using a solubility curve, determine the amount of each solute that can dissolve in 100g of
water at the given temperature.
a. KNO3 at 70oC ___________
b. NH4Cl at 90 oC ___________
c. NaCl at 100 oC ___________
d. NaNO3 at 35 oC ___________
e. NH3 at 20 oC ___________
f. KClO3 at 65 oC ___________

2. When cola, a type of soda pop, is
manufactured, CO2 (g) is dissolved in it.
a. A capped bottle of cola contains CO2(g) under high pressure. When the cap is
removed, how does pressure affect the solubility of the dissolved CO2(g)?
b. A glass of cold cola is left to stand for 5 minutes at room temperature. How does
temperature affect the solubility of the CO2(g)?
3. Using the table above, determine whether the following solutions would be saturated,
unsaturated, or supersaturated.
a. 120g NaNO3 at 50 oC ___________________________
b. 40g NaCl at 90 oC ___________________________
c. 10g KNO3 at 30 oC ___________________________
d. 80g KNO3 at 50 oC ___________________________
e. 70g NH4Cl at 90 oC ___________________________
