What is the temperature at which crystals will start to form when a solution of 30 g of potassium nitrate in 100 g of cooled water?

I suppose that this temperature is approx. 5 oC.


When a saturated solution is cooled some crystals begin to appear in the solution is the solution now unsaturated?

No, the solution remains saturated. It is just that as the temperatures decreases so does the carrying capacity of the solvent.


What happens when saturated solution at a certain temperature is cooled slowly?

When cooling, a precipitate will be formed as the solublity product decreases.


What is crystallisation of salts?

When there is no more solute can be dissolved in a solution, a saturated solution is obtained. When a hot saturation solution is cooled down the solute will come out in solid form as a crystal. Small crystals will be found in fast cooling. If we hang a small crystal in a h ot saturated solution it will grow bigger when it cools slowly.

What term describes a solution that contains the maximum amount of soluteit can hold?

A solution that has the maximum amount of solute dissolved at that temperature is known as a saturated solution.However it is possible to prepare a super saturated solution by heating the solution slightly, dissolving the maximum amount of solute and then carefully cooling the solution. Generally the super saturated solution is unstable and the excess solute will precipitate out if given the energy to do so.A common super saturated solution is a sugar solution. Sugar is added to water and the solution is heated and then carefully cooled. The solution can form a glass like solid called "toffee" rather than crystals of sugar.

What causes the equilibrium to shift when a cooled saturated potassium nitrate solution is added to water?

When a cooled saturated potassium nitrate solution is added to water, the concentration of the potassium nitrate decreases making it less likely that he substance will precipitate out of solution.


What evidence do you have that the equilibrium shifted when saturated potassium nitrate solution was cooled?

The solution forms bigger crystals that have pointed ends.


What do you expect to observe when a solution of potassium nitrate saturated at 343 k or 70 c is cooled to room temprature?

Precipitation of a solid.


Potassium nitrate was found to have a solubility of 120 g in 100 g of water at 80 °C and 50 g in 100 g of water at 25 °C.50 g of water was heated to 80 °C and solid potassium nitrate added until the solution was just saturated?

The solution was then cooled to 25 °C when solid potassium nitrate separated out to leave a saturated solution. Using the information provided in this question, what is the minimum mass of water that must now be added to the mixture of the solution and the solid in order to make this solid potassium nitrate redissolve at 25 °C?


What will happen if a saturated solution of copper chloride is cooled?

A cooled saturated solution of copper chloride will precipitate crystals of copper chloride.


What is the temperature at which crystals will start to form when a solution of 30 g of potassium nitrate in 100 g of cooled water?

I suppose that this temperature is approx. 5 oC.


What happens when a crystal of potassium nitrate is added to the saturated solution as it is cooled?

Yes, since the solubility of a solid solute in liquid solvent is decreased when the temperature is reduced, then the amount of of solute beyond the solubility limit must crystallize out of solution


What would happen if a hot saturated solution was cooled slowly?

Crystallisation


When a hot saturated solution is cooled?

The solute will gradually form a precipitate.


What would happen if a hot saturated solution was cooled quickly?

There Is No Way A Saturated Solution Can Be Cooled Quickly. But If It Did The Solution Would Desaturate.


When a saturated solution is cooled some crystals begin to appear in the solution is the solution now unsaturated?

No, the solution remains saturated. It is just that as the temperatures decreases so does the carrying capacity of the solvent.


What heppen when hot saturated solution is cooled?

Either it becomes "supersaturated" OR some material separates out (precipitates).
