Answer: In this case, you can estimate that the solubility of potassium nitrate in water at

60

C

is equal to about

solubility

110 g / 100 mL water

−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−

This tells you that a saturated solution of potassium nitrate will hold about

110 g

of dissolved salt, i.e. of dissociated salt, per

100 mL

of water at

60

C
