The Attempt at a Solution
I chose B. My explanation is that the scenario is a block of salt is put into a beaker of water. The equilibrium exists when the solution is saturated so the remaining block cannot dissolve anymore and will stay solid. Is this the correct explanation? I am making sure because I have never seen a question like this before. Thank you very much!
