Question: Problem 1 : Phase Diagram Consider the sugar - water phase diagram below. ( a ) How much sugar will dissolve in 1 5 0

Problem 1: Phase Diagram
Consider the sugar-water phase diagram below.
(a) How much sugar will dissolve in 1500 g water at 90C(194F)?
(b) If the saturated liquid solution in part (a) is cooled to 20C(68F), some of the sugar precipitates as a solid. What will be the composition of the saturated liquid solution (in wt % sugar) at 20C?
(c) How much of the solid sugar will come out of solution upon cooling to 20C?
