CHAPTER 5: WATER AND SOLUTION

1.0 LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

5.4 Solution and Solubility

2.0 AIM:
To study the effect of different volumes of water on the rate of dissolving salt

3.0 VARIABLES
a) Manipulated variables: Volume of water
b) Responding variables : Time Taken to dissolving salt
c) Constant : Mass of salt

4.0 APPARATUS/MATERIALS:
Beam balance, stopwatch, 3 beakers (250ml), fine salt, glass rod, measuring cylinder.

5.0 PROCEDURE:
1. Beaker A is filled with 50ml of water, beaker B is filled with 100ml of water and
beaker C is filled with 200ml of water.
2. Water is at room temperature.
3. 10g of salt is weighed with a beam balance and added to each beaker.
4. The solution in each beaker is stirred at the constant rate until all the salt dissolve
completely.
5. Time taken for salt to dissolve is recorded for each beaker
