___________5) What is the minimum temperature needed to dissolve 35 grams of potassium chloride in 100 grams of water

___________6) At what temperature do potassium chloride and potassium nitrate have the same solubility ?

___________7 )At what temperature do potassium nitrate and sodium chloride have the same solubility ?

___________8) If 110 grams of potassium chloride are mixed with 100 grams of water at 20 °C, how much will not dissolve ?

___________9) If 250 grams of potassium nitrate are mixed with 100 grams of water at 85 °C, how much will not dissolve ?

___________10) If 50 grams of sodium chloride are mixed with 100 grams of water at 80 °C, how much will not dissolve ?

___________11) If 15 grams of potassium chloride are added to 100 grams of water at 30 °C, how much more must be added to saturate the solution?

___________12) If 170 grams of potassium nitrate are added to 100 grams of water at 80 °C, how much more must be added to saturate the solution ?

___________13) If 10 grams of sodium chloride are added to 100 grams of water at 100 °C, how much more must be added to saturate the solution ?

___________14) 100 grams of water are saturated with potassium chloride at 35 °C. If this solution is heated to 95oC, how much more can be dissolved ?

___________15) 100 grams of water are saturated with potassium nitrate at 20 °C. If the solution is heated to 80oC, how much more can be dissolved?
