Concepts:

This worksheet helps students build on their understanding of solution formation. It introduces the concept of solubility, saturated solutions and how these are illustrated using a solubility curve graph. Students should understand the typical pattern, that solubility of solids increases with temperature while the solubility of gases decreases with temperature. Two higher-level application questions appear at the end of this assignment to check students understanding of this trend.

How I Use This:

I use this worksheet at the beginning of my unit on solutions to help introduce the vocabulary (solute, solvent, saturated, unsaturated, and supersaturated solutions). This also provides a great opportunity to review reading data from graphs, and important science literacy skill I try to emphasize throughout the year.
