the maximum amount of copper sulfate that can be dissolved in 45.0g of water at 70C is 20.0g. what is the solubility of copper sulfate at that temperature?
(in grams per 100g water)​


Sagot :

Answer:

That depends on the amount. Solubility is the maximum amount of salt dissolved in 100 g of water. So, if the amount is within limit, then yes. Solubility of anhydrous copper sulfate is 24.3 g/100 g water, so it is not bad. Put it in perspective, the solubility of NaCl is about 35 g/100 g water at room temperature. If the amount of copper sulfate is unknown, qualitative I'd say solid copper sulfate will dissolve in water completely.

Explanation:

If you use the pentahydrate CuSO4.5H2O then the solubility at 20°C is 20.8g/100ml H2O

If you use the anhydride, CuSO4. then the solubility at 20°C is 36.2g/100ml H2O
