Question 32
H

A student obtains these results after leaving identical potato cylinders in sugar solutions for the same time.

Table

Sugar concentration / mol dm−3\text{mol dm}^{-3}mol dm−3Mean percentage change in mass / %\%%
0.25+3.0
0.30+1.0
0.35-1.0
0.40-3.0

The student wants a more precise estimate of the concentration that gives no net mass change.

Which additional set of concentrations is most suitable?

[1]
A

0.100.100.10, 0.150.150.15, 0.200.200.20 and 0.25 mol dm−30.25\ \text{mol dm}^{-3}0.25 mol dm−3

B

0.310.310.31, 0.320.320.32, 0.330.330.33 and 0.34 mol dm−30.34\ \text{mol dm}^{-3}0.34 mol dm−3

C

0.350.350.35, 0.400.400.40, 0.450.450.45 and 0.50 mol dm−30.50\ \text{mol dm}^{-3}0.50 mol dm−3

D

0.200.200.20, 0.300.300.30, 0.400.400.40 and 0.50 mol dm−30.50\ \text{mol dm}^{-3}0.50 mol dm−3
