Okoye added 5 g of KCl to a beaker with 10 cm² of water and stirred until no more solute would dissolve, the remaining solute was filtered from the mixture then dried and weighed, and it was found to be 1.5g. The temperature of the room was 25 °C. a) Determine the mass of solute dissolved in water?

b) Use the answer from part a. to work out the solubility at this temperature.

Why do you suppose the structural polysaccharide cellulose does not contain branches? why do you suppose the structural polysaccharide cellulose does not contain branches? branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into globules, thereby decreasing the flexibility and strength of the globules. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into microfibrils, thereby increasing the rigidity and strength of the microfibrils. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into globules, thereby increasing the flexibility and strength of the globules. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into microfibrils, thereby decreasing the rigidity and strength of the microfibrils.
