1 Solubility Curves The amount of a solute that will dissolve is a solvent depends upon the temperature of the solution.

2 KNO 3 dissolved in water The data to the right is how many grams of KNO 3 solid that will dissolve in 100ml of water at different temperatures.The data to the right is how many grams of KNO 3 solid that will dissolve in 100ml of water at different temperatures.

3 KNO 3 dissolved in water This graphs shows the relationship between how much solid potassium nitrate will dissolve in water at different temperatures. Notice how it is not a straight line, but curves upward. The hotter the water, the more potassium nitrate will dissolve.

4 Question? How much Potassium Nitrate will dissolve at 25 degrees Celsius? Follow the line up from 25 degrees and then over to the mass.

5 Solubility Curve of NH 3 Notice how the curve is different from the solid potassium nitrate. The reason is simple, ammonia (NH 3 ) is a gas. Therefore it is less soluble in hot water.

6 Saturated Solution Any point on the line indicates a saturated solution. Saturated means the solvent has dissolved as much solute as possible.

7 Unsaturated Solution The red area ofThe red area of the graph the graph represents an represents an unsaturated unsaturated solution. Less solution. Less solute is dissolved solute is dissolved than a saturated than a saturated solution. solution.

8 Supersaturated Solution The red area ofThe red area of the graph the graph represents a represents a supersaturated supersaturated solution. More solution. More solute is dissolved solute is dissolved than a saturated than a saturated solution. solution.

9 Use this graph to help you answer the rest of the questions.
