The solubility of KI is 50 g in 100 g of H₂O at 20 °C. If 110 grams of KI are added to 200 grams of H₂O,

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The solubility of KI in 100 g of H₂O at 20 °C is 50 g. Therefore, the maximum amount of KI that can dissolve in 200 g of H₂O at 20 °C is 100 g (50 g/100 g x 200 g = 100 g). However, 110 g of KI are added to 200 g of H₂O, which is more than the maximum amount that can dissolve. Therefore, a saturated solution will form, meaning that all the KI will dissolve, but there will be some excess KI that will not dissolve and will remain as solid particles in the solution.

The Solubility of KI Is 50 G in 100 G
