Question

part f
what happens to the solubility of so₂ as the temperature rises?
a it increases
b none of the above
c it stays the same
d it decreases
part g
if you created a saturated solution of so₂ at 20c with 20g, how much substance would be leftover?
a 10g
b 20g
c 5g
d 30g

Explanation:

Part F

According to the solubility curve, for \(SO_2\), as the temperature increases, the solubility curve goes downward. This indicates that the solubility of \(SO_2\) decreases with an increase in temperature.

From the solubility curve, at \(20^{\circ}C\), the solubility of \(SO_2\) is about \(10g\) per \(100g\) of water (saturated solution). If we try to dissolve \(20g\) of \(SO_2\) in water to make a saturated solution at \(20^{\circ}C\), the amount that can dissolve is \(10g\). So the leftover amount is \(20 - 10=10g\).

Answer:

D. It decreases
