What substance would be more soluble in cold water than warm water?

A. sodium chloride crystals
B. oxygen gas
C. sugar powder
D. potassium chloride salt

1 answer

In general, the solubility of most solutes increases with temperature. However, certain substances exhibit different behaviors. Among the options provided, potassium chloride (KCl) is known to have a greater solubility in cold water compared to warm water because its solubility curve slightly decreases as the temperature rises.

Therefore, the correct answer is: D. potassium chloride salt.
