    The salt dissolved fastest in the warm water.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    You were correct.

    The salt dissolved faster in the warm water, because the water molecules have more kinetic energy to dislodge the salt particles from the surface of the crystal.

    The colder the water, the less kinetic energy the water molecules will have, and the more slowly the salt will dissolve.
