Abstract
The solubility of glucose was measured in aqueous saturated alkali metal halide (NaF, NaCl, NaBr, NaI, KCl, KBr, and KI) solutions at 30°C. The solubility of glucose in saturated sodium halide solutions is lower than that in water. On the contrary, the solubility of glucose in saturated potassium halide solutions is higher than that in water. The determinations of glucose solubility were also carried out in some unsaturated NaCl or KCl solutions at 30°C. In the case of NaCl, the glucose solubility curve is not simple. It increases slightly at lower NaCl concentrations then decreases gradually with increases NaCl concentration. In the case of KCl, the curve is simple, the solubility of glucose increasing with increases KCl concentration. The determinations of alkali metal chloride solubilities were also carried out in the presence of glucose at 30°C.
