The solubility of common salt is 200g
at 40°C.
When 200g of common salt is added
into 100 ml of water of 40°C, it forms a
saturated solution. (The salt cannot
dissolves anymore)
The solubility of sugar is 100g at 40°C
When 100g of sugar is added into 100
ml of water of 40°C, it forms a saturated
solution. (The sugar cannot dissolves
anymore)

What Is Matter Made Up Of?

John Dalton
an English school teacher, was the first to propose a
theory of the composition of matter. He stated
that all matter is made up of tiny particles called
atoms and he said that these particles are the
indivisible parts of a specific kind of matter.

Matter is made up of tiny and Discrete particles

Kinetic Theory of Matter

The kinetic theory of matter explains the state of matter in solid, liquid and
gaseous states based on the following assumptions:
 Matter is made up of tiny and discrete particles.

 Particles in matter are always vibrating or moving and colliding with each
other randomly.
 There are forces of attraction between particles of matter.
 The higher the temperature, the higher the kinetic energy of the particles

Diffusion
 Diffusion is a process whereby particles of different matters mix slowly due to
the random movement of the particles
 The diffusion of particles in matter supports the kinetic theory of matter

Experiment to show that matter is made up of small particles:

Inference: Inference:
The small particles of air have escaped The fine particles separated by water are
through tiny air holes in the wall of the dispersed uniformly among the water
balloon particles.
Conclusion: Conclusion:
Matter is made up of tiny and discrete Matter is made up of tiny and discrete
particles particles

Law of Conservation of Mass State that:

 Matter cannot be created nor destroyed
 Matter can change from one state(form) into another
 When matter undergoes a physical change, its mass is conserved
