The solubility of sodium chloride is 35 g/100 g of water at 20ºC. The solution that would be formed when 46 g of sodium chloride is added to 100.0 g of water at this temperature would consist of 35 g of sodium chloride dissolved in the water, and 11 g of sodium chloride remaining undissolved.

Question

At 20ºC, the solubility of sodium chloride in water is 35 g per 100 g of water, meaning only 35 g can dissolve in 100 g of water at this temperature. If 46 g is added, 35 g will dissolve, and the remaining 11 g will not dissolve and remain as a solid.
