How would you separate
a mixture of sand and water?
How would you separate
a mixture
of sand and water?
ANSWER:
Pour the mixture through
a filter. The water will go through
the filter leaving the sand behind.
How would you separate
a mixture of iron and sand?
How would you separate
ANSWER:
a mixture
of iron and sand?
Use a magnet to separate
the iron from the sand.
How would you separate
a mixture of salt and water?
HINT:
Salt and water
form a solution.
How would you separate
a mixture
of salt and water?
ANSWER:
Heat the water until the
water evaporates. The salt
will remain.
HINT:
Salt and water
form a solution.
INVESTIGATING SOLUTIONS
1. What is a saturated solution?
A solution in which no more solid material will
_________________________________________
dissolve; additional material settles to the
_________________________________________
bottom.
_________________________________________
2. How can you tell when a solution is saturated?
No more material will dissolve in the solution.

3. What is solubility?
Solubility is the property that substances
_______________________________________
have of dissolving in solvents, such as the
_______________________________________
solubility of salt in water.
_______________________________________
4. What is meant by the solubility of a material
in water?
How much of the material dissolves in the
_______________________________________
water.

INVESTIGATING SOLUTIONS
5. What is a concentrated solution?
A solution containing a large amount of
_______________________________________
material dissolved in a measured amount of
_______________________________________
liquid.
_______________________________________
6. What is a dilute solution?
A solution containing a small amount of
_______________________________________
material dissolved in a large amount of liquid.
