SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on the solubility of various fertilizers in distilled water at temperatures of 5, 10, and 20 degrees Celsius. Key findings include that Potassium nitrate has solubility values of 133 g/L, 170 g/L, and 209 g/L at the respective temperatures. Additionally, Potassium sulfate shows solubility values of 80 g/L, 90 g/L, and 111 g/L. These results provide essential data for understanding fertilizer behavior in aqueous solutions.
