Solutions Starter - on whiteboards List all of the things that you can mix with water LO: Use the terms solute, solvent and solution to describe a mixture of substances The Cup Of Tea Imagine you are making a cup of tea, and you add sugar to it. Describe what happens as scientifically as you can Leave a big space after your answer - we will write this again at the end of the lesson The substance being Dissolving dissolved is called the solute. The substance it’s dissolving When we dissolve something, it into is called the solvent. doesn’t disappear. It forms a mixture. A mixture of a solute and When we dissolve something, we say solvent is called a solution. that we have made a solution - a particular type of mixture Draw a diagram, labelling the key words from above Solubility When something can dissolve, we call it soluble. If it doesn’t dissolve, we call it insoluble. Some things are more soluble than others. What factors do you think would affect how much solute would dissolve? Experiment Plan How does the volume of solvent affect the time taken for a fixed amount of solute to dissolve? What are our variables? How will we keep our controls the same? The Cup Of Tea Imagine you are making a cup of tea, and you add sugar to it. Describe what happens, using the following words Solute / solvent / solution / dissolve
