State Symbols
When water is a solvent in a chemical equation, we consider it an aqueous solution. Scholars match the name of four states of matter to their proper symbol in a chemical equation. Four puzzles provide repetition to help pupils remember...
Curated OER
Mixtures
Students observe that movement of a solute in the solvent increases the rate of dissolution. They demonstrate that when the solute is broken into smaller pieces it dissolves faster.
Curated OER
The Formation of Solutions
In this solutions instructional activity, students compare situations that increase or decrease the solubility of a solute. Students describe how surface area, stirring, and temperature can increase the rate of dissolving a solute. This...
