What is the difference between soluble and insoluble substances?
What is the difference between soluble and insoluble substances?
Soluble substances can dissolve in a liquid, while insoluble substances cannot dissolve in the liquid.
Define solubility.
Define solubility.
Solubility is the ability of a substance to dissolve in another substance.

Study Notes
Soluble and Insoluble Substances
- Soluble substances like sugar and salt can dissolve in water to form a solution.
- The liquid in which the substance dissolves is the solvent, and the substance that dissolves is the solute.
- Insoluble substances like sand do not dissolve in water.
Saturated Solutions
- A saturated solution is a solution that has reached its maximum capacity to hold a solute, leaving undissolved substances at the bottom.
- Unsaturated solutions can still dissolve more solute.
Factors Affecting the Rate of Solution
- Temperature of the mixture affects the rate of solution.
- Stirring or shaking the mixture affects the rate of solution.
- Grain size of the solute affects the rate of solution.
Melting and Dissolving
- Melting occurs when heat is added to a substance, changing its phase from solid to liquid.
- Dissolving occurs when a solid is placed in a liquid and particles of the solid break away into the liquid, with no phase change.
Importance of Recycling
- 60-80% of daily waste can be recycled.
- Practicing the 5 Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Repair, Renew) can help conserve resources and save the planet.
- Recycling materials include glass, plastic, paper, and cans.
Benefits of Practicing the 5Rs
- Reduces energy consumption
- Reduces pollution
- Saves natural resources
- Creates jobs
- Earns and saves money
- Reduces land use for waste dumps
Forces Between Matter
- Forces are pushes or pulls that occur when objects interact.
- Examples of forces include pushing and pulling, which are opposite forces.
Measuring Forces
- Forces have magnitude (amount or size) and can be measured in Newtons (N).
- A spring balance is used to measure the magnitude of a force.
Effects of Forces on Objects
- Forces can change an object's shape.
- Forces can change an object's movement (speed up or slow down).
- Forces can change an object's direction.
- Forces can cause an object to turn or twist.
- Forces can have no noticeable effect.
