A student states that 203.9 g of table sugar will form a saturated solution in 100 g of water.
What do you need to know to decide whether this statement is correct?
the temperature and the solubility of sugar at that temperature
the temperature and the molar mass of sugar
the percent by volume of the solution and the solubility of sugar at that temperature

Respuesta :

The temperature and the solubility of sugar at that temperature

Explanation:

The amount of substance which can be dissolved in the solvent depends on the temperature.

As the temperature increases, more substance can be dissolved.

A solution is  saturated if any more of the solute cannot be dissolved in the solution at the given temperature

Hence we need to know the temperature  and also the amount of substance which can be dissolved(solubility) at the same temperature

a) the statement given in option A is correct

b) molar mass has no correlation with the substance's solubility and hence option b is not correct

c) The percent by volume of the solution is not needed to find if the solution is saturated and hence option c is not correct
