Graphing: Solubility

Question Answer
What do the numbers on the y-axis represent? The y-axis represents to mass(g) of pure compound which is soluble in 100 g of water at the temperature displayed on the x-axis.
What does each curve on the graph represent? As the temperature (x-axis) of the water increases from 0° - 100 °C the mass of compound which will dissolve at this temperature is plotted along the different curves.
yellow curve -> KNO3
lt blue curve -> NaNO3
red curve -> NaOCCH3
purple curve -> KH4¬Cl
navy blue curve -> LiSO4
lt. green curve -> KCl
Which substances show increasing solubility with increasing temperature? Those curves with a positive slope show an increasing solubility with rising solvent (H2O) temperature. KNO3, NaNO3, NaOOCCH3, NH4Cl, and KCl
Which substances show decreasing solubility with increasing temperature? The curves with a negative slope show an decreasing solubility with rising solvent (H2O) temperature: NaCl, LiSO4.
