Solution

To answer this question, you would need to refer to the solubility graph of KNO3. Here are the steps:

  1. Locate 40 degrees on the x-axis (temperature axis) of the graph.

  2. From this point, draw a line straight up until it intersects with the solubility curve of KNO3.

  3. At the point of intersection, draw a line horizontally to the y-axis (solubility axis). This will give you the solubility of KNO3 at 40 degrees.

  4. If the solubility is more than 60g per 100g of water, then the solution is unsaturated because it can still dissolve more KNO3.

  5. If the solubility is exactly 60g per 100g of water, then the solution is saturated because it cannot dissolve any more KNO3 at this temperature.

  6. If the solubility is less than 60g per 100g of water, then the solution is supersaturated because it has more KNO3 dissolved than it should be able to hold at this temperature.

Without the actual graph, I can't give a definitive answer, but these are the steps you would take to find it.
