wo salts A and B are dissolved in water. At the temperature of the experiment, the solubility of A is 1 kg A/kg pure water and that of B is 0.4 kg /kg water. It will be assumed that the solubilities of the two salts are not affected by the presence of each other. If originally 20 kg of A and 20 kg B are dissolved in 100 kg water, and some of the water is evaporated from solution, calculate the: (1) amount evaporated (2) weight of mother liquor (3) composition of mother liquor (4) weight of each crystal formed for the following cases: a) 50% of the water is evaporated b) Enough water is evaporated to reduce the total weight of the solution to 50% of the original value c) Enough water is evaporated to leave the solution saturated with A, without crystallizing any A d) Enough water is evaporated so that the remaining solution is 50% of the original value.
