Solutions and Solubility

Question 8 • Chemistry A.1 - F26 - Jacob Metsker

A student was comparing the solubility of equal amounts of table salt and table sugar at different temperatures.The table below shows the four samples that the student used and the temperature of the water that they were dissolved in.SampleNameChemical formulaTemperature of water (°C)1Table sugarC12H22O11 802Table sugarC12H22O11 453Table salt NaCl 554Table saltNaCl 63Which of the samples most likely had the highest solubility?

Answer
A
1
B
2
C
3
D
4

Explanation

Table sugar becomes much more soluble as water temperature increases, while table salt’s solubility changes only slightly. Sample 1 contains sugar in the hottest water, at 80°C, so it most likely had the highest solubility. Sample 2 also contains sugar, but its water is cooler at 45°C.
