(A) Formulas for solubility and the ratio of solvent to solute do not apply to colder liquids in the same way as they do to heated liquids, because they are moving less and have less energy.
(B) Because they are moving less and have less energy, formulas for solubility and the ratio of solvent to solute do not apply to colder liquids in the same way as they do to heated liquids.
(C) Because they are moving and are seldom in equilibrium, colder liquids are not subject to the same applicability of formulas for solubility and the ratio of solvent to solute as heated liquids.
(D) Because colder liquids are moving less and have less energy, formulas for solubility and the ratio of solvent to solute do not apply to them in the same way as to established heated liquids.
(E) Colder liquids are not subject to the applicability of formulas for solubility and the ratio of solvent to solute in the same way as heated liquids, because they are moving less and are have less energy.

> Step One: Spot the Concept Tested
Pronouns
Spot: Pay attention to pronouns in the underlined part of the sentence.
Step Two: Check the Rule and Decide on a Fix
A pronoun must clearly and correctly refer to only one thing. Look for an answer without they・in it or that removes the ambiguity.
Step Three: Process of Elimination
Eliminate A, B, C, and E
Step Four: Chunk and Compare
Only D is left
Step Five: Reread the Sentence and Choose an Answer
Choose D
b) wrong: modifier incorrectly modifies formulas
c) wrong: messed up
d) wrong: "established heated liquids" makes no sense
e) wrong: fragmented sentance
