Answer:

72 g/L

Step-by-step explanation:

The dissolved amount of solute is the difference between the amount you have poured and the amount that precipitated:

125 g - 35 g = 90 g

Thus, 90 grams of solute were dissolved in 1.25 liters. The saturation point is the ratio between the grams dissolved and the volume in liters:

saturation point = 90 g/1.25 L = 72 g/L
