Potassium nitrate (KNO3) occurs naturally as the mineral saltpeter in Italy, and many other places. It is easy to mine, and highly endothermic when it is dissolved in water. Because of this, members of the Roman nobility often dissolved saltpeter in large urn when they had parties. Which of the following is the most likely application of this technology? Oa. a. The Romans used saltpeter to chill their wine. Ob. The Romans used saltpeter to light their dining halls. Oc. The Romans used saltpeter to cook their fish course. Od. The Romans used saltpeter as a warm soak for their guests' feet.
