Question

The solubility of sodium chloride is 35.9/100 ml in STP, try dissolving 1 kg of salt in 1 l of water what happens? how much salt will be dissolved and how much salt will be insoluble?

Answer 1

35.9 g NaCl x (1000 mL/100 mL) = 359 g NaCl that will dissolve in 1 L of H2O. Anything over that will not dissolve and the solution will be saturated. How much is left? That's 1000 g NaCl - 359 g NaCl = ?

Answer 2
