(3) The solubility rule "like dissolves like" is not adequate for predicting the solubility of ionic compounds in water.
A) All three statements are true.
B) Two of the three statements are true.
C) Only one of the statements is true.
D) None of the statements is true.

1) True. This statement is true as the number of grams of solute in a solution is proportional to its molarity and the volume of the solution. Therefore, equal volumes of two solutions of the same molarity would contain the same number of grams of solute. 
2) True. This statement is true as hemolysis and crenation are opposite processes that occur in cells when exposed to solutions with different tonicity. In hemolysis, cells swell and burst due to exposure to a hypotonic solution, while in crenation, cells shrink and shrivel due to exposure to a hypertonic solution. 
3) False. This statement is false as the solubility rule "like dissolves like" is often used to predict the solubility of ionic compounds in water. This rule is based on the principle that substances with similar polarities or intermolecular forces tend to dissolve in each other. However, the rule is not always accurate and may not apply to all ionic compounds.
