Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The solution has to be labeled as saturated, unsaturated or supersaturated solution.
Concept Introduction:
Solution: A solution is a homogeneous mixture that contains small particles and liquid solutions are transparent in nature.
The three different types of solutions are,
Unsaturated Solution: A solution that contains less than the maximum number of grams per solute in solvent at a given temperature is called as unsaturated solution.
Saturated solution: A solutions that contains the maximum number of grams of solute that can dissolve in solvent at given temperature is called as saturated solution.
Supersaturated solution: A solution that has more than the maximum number of grams of solute that can dissolve in a solvent at given temperature is called as supersaturated solution.
(b)
Interpretation:
The solution has to be labeled as saturated, unsaturated or supersaturated solution.
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (a).
(c)
Interpretation:
The solution has to be labeled as saturated, unsaturated or supersaturated solution.
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (a).

- Refer to Figure 13.10 ( Sec. 13-4b) to determine whether these situations would result in an unsaturated, saturated, or supersaturated solution. 120. g RbCl is added to 100. g H2O at 50 °C. 30. g KCl is dissolved in 100. g H2O at 70 °C. 20. g NaCl is dissolved in 50. g H2O at 60 °C. Figure 13.10 Solubility of ionic compounds versus temperature.arrow_forwardSome lithium chloride, LiCl, is dissolved in 100 mL of water in one beaker, and some Li2SO4 is dissolved in 100 mL of water in another beaker. Both are at 10 C, and both are saturated solutions; some solid remains undissolved in each beaker. Describe what you would observe as the temperature is raised. The following data are available to you from a handbook of chemistry:arrow_forwardThe solubility of ammonium formate, NH4CHO2, in 100. g of water is 102 g at 0 C and 546 g at 80 C. A solution is prepared by dissolving NH4CHO2 in 200. g of water until no more will dissolve at 80 C. The solution is then cooled to 0 C. What mass of NH4CHO2 precipitates? (Assume that no water evaporates and that the solution is not supersaturated.)arrow_forward
- . Why does the amount of excess solid solute present in a solution not affect the amount of solute that ultimately dissolves in a given amount of solvent?arrow_forwardClassify each of the following solutions as saturated, unsaturated, or supersaturated based on the following observations made after adding a small piece of solid solute to the solution. a. The added solute rapidly dissolves. b. The added solute falls to the bottom of the container where it remains without any decrease in size. c. The added solute falls to the bottom of the container where it decreases in size for several hours and thereafter its size remains constant. d. The added solute causes the production of a large amount of solid white crystals.arrow_forward.
