To plot the graph of solubility of potassium nitrate against temperature
Draw and label the axes.
The x-axis should represent Temperature () and the y-axis should represent Solubility (g/100g of water).
Choose an appropriate scale for each axis.
- For the x-axis (Temperature): A suitable scale would be (or 1 major grid square) representing . This allows the temperature range from to to fit well.
- For the y-axis (Solubility): A suitable scale would be (or 1 major grid square) representing . Start the y-axis at a value like to accommodate the lowest solubility value of .
Plot the given data points from the table onto the graph paper.
For example, plot $(10, 80)$, $(20, 88)$, $(30, 96)$, and so on, up to $(100, 180)$.
Draw a smooth curve through the plotted points.
This curve represents the solubility curve for potassium nitrate.
Part b(i)
The solubility of potassium nitrate at .
From the graph, determine
(Note: Since a physical graph cannot be plotted here, the values are determined by interpolation from the given data, which is equivalent to reading from a well-drawn graph.)
Locate on the temperature (x-axis).
Draw a vertical line from up to the solubility curve.
From the point where the vertical line intersects the curve, draw a horizontal line to the solubility (y-axis).
Based on interpolation between (124 g/100g water) and (136 g/100g water):
The solubility of potassium nitrate at is .
Part b(ii)
The mass of potassium nitrate that would dissolve in of water at .
Determine the solubility at from the graph.
Based on interpolation between (148 g/100g water) and (162 g/100g water):
This means of potassium nitrate dissolves in of water at .
Calculate the mass that dissolves in of water.
Since of water is half of of water, the mass of potassium nitrate that dissolves will also be half.
The mass of potassium nitrate that would dissolve in of water at is .
