Answer:

B: sodium chloride changed the least; potassium nitrate changed the most.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sodium chloride barely changed its solubility, while potassium nitrate increased its solubility from less than 20 g/100 mL to more than 150 g/100 mL

Graph of solubility as a funtion of water temperature is attached.
