For the system KNO3-NaNO3-H2O, a ternary point exists at 5°C at which the two anhydrous salts are in equilibrium with a saturated solution containing 9.04% KNO3 and 41.01% NaNO. Determine analytically the maximum weight of KNO3 which can be recovered pure from a salt mixture containing 70 g of KNO3 and 30 g NaNO3 by crystallization from an aqueous solution at 5°C. Draw the phase diagram and show your solution.

Question

For the system KNO3-NaNO3-H2O, a ternary point exists at 5°C at which the two
anhydrous salts are in equilibrium with a saturated solution containing 9.04% KNO3 and
41.01% NaNO. Determine analytically the maximum weight of KNO3 which can be
recovered pure from a salt mixture containing 70 g of KNO3 and 30 g NaNO3 by
crystallization from an aqueous solution at 5°C. Draw the phase diagram and show your solution.
