fraction of water remain ==131/408
=0.321

fraction of water should be evaporated==1-0.321==0.679

moles of CASO4 in the remain soln can be calculated with the help of Ksp given ==3*10^-3
moles of CASO4 in 10⁶ ml of wateris 131/136
if x ml of water is remain after evaporation then then molarity of CASO4 in the soln is 131000/136x==3*10^-3
from here x ==131*10⁶/408 so the fraction evaporated is

1- (131/408)==1-0.321==0.679
