If potassium nitrate is added to water in a beaker to give a homogeneous mixture, then potassium nitrate is referred to as the __________, water as the __________, and the homogeneous mixture as the _______.
(solution/ solute/solvent/saturated solution)
Give a reason why water is considered a universal solvent.
If ‘X’ g. of potassium nitrate is added to 100 g. of water at 60°C and the salt dissolves completely then :
(a) is ‘X’ g. the solubility of potassium nitrate at 60°C.
(b) is the solution formed – saturated or unsaturated
(c) if on addition ‘X’ + ‘Y’ g. of potassium nitrate to the same amount of water at the same temperature and the solute now just remains behind after stirring then –
(d) is the solution now – saturated or unsaturated
(e) is ‘X’ + ‘Y’ g. the solubility of potassium nitrate.
