Question

use the graph to identify the number, letter, or word that completes each statement.

• the solubility of solute d as temperature increases.
• the solubility of solute increases the most as temperature increases.
• the solubility of solutes c and d is the same at °c.
• as the temperature increases from 0 to 100, which solutions solubility only changes by about 5 grams? solution letter

Explanation:

Step1: Observe Solute D's curve

By looking at the graph of Solute D, we can see that as the temperature (x - axis) increases, the solubility (y - axis) decreases.

Step2: Compare slopes of curves

To find the solute whose solubility increases the most as temperature increases, we compare the slopes of the curves of all solutes. Solute E has the steepest upward - sloping curve.

Step3: Find intersection point

To find the temperature at which the solubility of Solutes C and D is the same, we look for the x - value of the intersection point of their curves. It is around 25°C.

Step4: Calculate solubility change

For each solute, we calculate the difference in solubility values at 0°C and 100°C. For Solute A, the change is about 5 grams.

Answer:

• decreases
• E
• 25
• A
