The mass of potassium nitrate (KNO₃) crystals that will be separated is calculated as 6.25 g.
The given parameters:
- Mass of KNO₃ = 25 g
- Initial temperature = 95 ⁰C
- Final temperature = 55 ⁰C
- Solubility at 95 ⁰C = 100 M
- Solubility at 55 ⁰C = 25 M
The mass of KNO₃ at 95 ⁰C is calculated as follows;
[tex]m = \frac{25\ g \times 100\ g}{100\ g} \\\\m = 25 \ g[/tex]
mass of water = 100 g - 25 g = 75 g
The mass of KNO₃ at 55 ⁰C is calculated as follows;
[tex]m = \frac{75 \ g \times 25 \ g}{100 \ g} \\\\m = 18.75 \ g[/tex]
The mass of potassium nitrate (KNO₃) crystals that will be separated is calculated as;
[tex]m= 25\ g \ - \ 18.75 \ g\\\\m = 6.25 \ g[/tex]
Thus, the mass of potassium nitrate (KNO₃) crystals that will be separated is calculated as 6.25 g.
