3.28 1000 kg of a solution containing 50% by weight of a certain salt is cooled to 20°C in a crystallizer and the crystals formed are separated. The solubility of the salt at the crystallization temperature is 20 kg per 100 kg of water. Calculate the theoretical amount of crystals that can be produced from the solution.
