Day Forty One

Day Forty One

- warmed up with the question "If you were at home, how would you make something dissolve quicker than normal?  What would you do?"
- students came up with great answers including ...
     - heat the liquid
     - break up pieces of what you dissolving
     - add pressure
- we took notes on the specifics of solutions and also solubility
- introduced some new vocabulary
     - solute
     - solvent
     - solubility
     - saturated
     - unsaturated
- showed the students solubility curves and how to use them to predict how much of a solute will dissolve in water (the solvent) at various temperatures

HW
- finish solubility graph worksheet (it will be checked next class)
