Best Answer

the decrease in temperature decreases the solubility of a salt in water so on cooling some quantity of the salt will be precipitated out if process is slow then fine crystals are obtained.

What happen to salt particles when they are placed in water?

They dissolve until the solution is saturated.


What would happen if you were to take a saturated solution at a certain temperature and cool it slowly?

the concentration of this solution is going to reduce.< Lets assume that the solution is comprised of water and salt> Then the water at a certain temperature begins to evaporate unlike the salt. at the end of the process, yes we agree that the solution has finally come to a room temperature, but concentration was lost during cooling. I mean that the solution becomes less concentrated


What should happen to the temperature if the kinetic energy is reduced?

It will decrease


A solution is saturated with dissolved minerals - what will happen if 50 percent of the water in the solution evaporated?

50 percent of the dissolved minerals will condense out of solution by crystallization.


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.


What may happen when a material loses heat?

What will happen if you keep adding sugar to a given amount of water at room temperature?

Eventually no more will dissolve. We say the solution has become saturated.


What happens if you continue to add solute to saturated solution?

All that would happen is the solute would not absorb into the solution and it would spill off eventually.
