Use the solubility curve?

Well, you lines up the y-"ordinate" with the x-"abscissa".

Explanation:

And so using the graph, we could make a saturated solution of KCl in water by dissolving 44*g to 100*mL to water......

At 10 ""^@C the least soluble substance is "potassium chlorate", KClO_3.

As is typical, SOLUBILITY of a solid solute INCREASES with INCREASING TEMPERATURE. And the SOLUBILITY of a gaseous solute DECREASES with INCREASING TEMPERATURE (interrogate the solubilities of "ammmonia", "sulfur dioxide", and "hydrogen chloride"). And this can be rationalized in that when we dissolve a solid, we have to supply energy to BREAK the solute-solute bonds.
