A student has three solutions of CsCI at 20 °C. The student tests each solution by adding a small amount of CCI to each solution. The results of each test are recorded in the table below.
Solution
Result
1
More crystals than were added appear at the bottom of the flask.
2
Crystals added settled at the bottom of the flask.
3
No visible solute appears at the bottom of the flask. Based on these results, describe the saturation of each solution before the tests were performed. Explain your reasoning.
Part B
After testing Solution 1 and observing the results, the student cooled Solution 1 to 10 °C. During the cooling, no additional solute came out of the solution.
- Describe the saturation of Solution 1 after it is cooled to 10 °C. Explain your reasoning.
