(b) Tystallised per hour 16 A solution containing 25% MgSO4 and 75% water is cooled so that MgSO47H,0 crystals are obtained on crystallization. During this process, 6.5% of the total water present in the feed is lost due to evaporation. The solubility of anhydrous MgSo, in water at this temperature is such that 35% of the anhydrous salt is present in the saturated solution. For treating 1000 kg of solution, calculate the following: (a) The weight of MgSO4.7H2O crystals obtained (b) The solubility of anhydrous salt in water (kg salt/100kg water)
