Solution

The correct option is A 35.87 g
The solubility of a solute in a solvent at any temperature is defined as the maximum amount of the solute in grams which can dissolve in 100g of the solvent to form the saturated solution at that particular temperature.

Weight of solute (KCl) =13.2 g

Weight of solvent=5013.2=36.8 g

Solubility of KCl =13.236.3×100=35.869.

Option A is correct.
