How much solute can be dissolved in 300 mL of water at 50°C?

With a solubility of 37g/100mL at 50’C and a water density of 0.988 g/mL at the same temperature, 40g of water would be 40.49 mL, so it could dissolve

g of NaCl.

Explanation:

a  solution  is always transparent, light passes through with no scattering from solute particles which are molecule in size. the  solution  is homogeneous and does not settle out. a colloid is intermediate between asolution  and a  suspension. while asuspension  will separate out a colloid will not.
