Solubility Lab Graph

Conclusions:

1. The solubility of a solute is the maximum mass of the solute that will dissolve in a certain amount of water at a certain temperature.

This is the same as saying that solubility is the concentration of a saturated solution of the solute.

2. From your graph, what mass of KCl can be dissolved in 100 g of water at these temperatures?

Use dotted lines on your graph to show how you used your graph to determine your answers:

a) 25 °C ~36 grams

b) 55 °C ~42 grams

3. For each of the following, tell whether the solution would be saturated, unsaturated, or *crystallizing.

(Hint: Plot the point and see whether it lies above, below, or on the best-fit line. Remember that the line represents a saturated solution.)

a) 40.0 g of KCl in 100 g of water at 75 °C unsaturated

b) 34.0 g of KCl in 100 g of water at 55 °C unsaturated

c) 45.0 g of KCl in 100 g of water at 25 °C crystallizing

*Normally, crystallization (rather than supersaturation) occurs when more solute is present than what can be dissolved in a given amount of solvent at a given temperature. Crystallization simply refers to the excess solute “crystallizing” and settling out of the solution. Supersaturation is rare.
