Lymphatic System

Multiple Choice

A student is investigating the effect of temperature on the solubility of a salt in water. The student dissolves a fixed amount of salt in varying temperatures of water and records the amount of salt that dissolves at each temperature. The data collected is as follows:

• At 0°C, 5 grams of salt dissolves.

• At 20°C, 15 grams of salt dissolves.

• At 40°C, 25 grams of salt dissolves.

• At 60°C, 35 grams of salt dissolves.

• As temperature increases, the solubility of the salt decreases.

• There is no significant relationship between temperature and the solubility of the salt.

• As temperature increases, the solubility of the salt increases.

• The solubility of the salt is constant at all temperatures.
