sodium chloride
• potassium chloride
• oxygen (as a gas)
• sugar

Answer 1

The substance most likely to dissolve in greater quantities in cold water is **sugar**.

While both sodium chloride and potassium chloride are soluble in water, sugar generally has a higher solubility in cold water compared to these salts. Oxygen gas is also less soluble in cold water compared to sugar. Therefore, among the given options, sugar is the best choice.
