(a) mass of solid = 94.6 – 89.6 = 5.3 g (1)
mass of water= 115.8 – 94.9 = 20.9 g (1)
(b) 10.5
solubility = × 100 = 62.5 grams of solid per 100 g of water
16.8 (2)
(c) the gas will escape
the mass of solid remaining will be less than it should be
the value of the calculated solubility will be lower than it should be (3)
