An educational lesson allows young chemists to test the solubility of different types of salt at various temperatures. Groups create a graph using data from unsaturated, saturated, and supersaturated solutions.

The first golf balls were made of wood and would only last for a few games. Modern golf balls last a lot longer but they don't float. The presentation provides the directions for a lab to determine the minimum amount of salt needed to...

Students observe the chemical reaction that occurs when salt is put on ice, and use the energy that is released to make ice cream.

In this solubility worksheet, learners conduct an experiment to see how temperature effects the solubility of salt in water. Students record their data in a chart and then graph the results. Then learners complete 2 short answer questions.

Students investigate how salt affects the state of ice. In this ice cream making lesson, students change the freezing temperature by adding salt and observing the results. Students use experimentation and comparison to see how chemicals...

Use the scientific method to experiment with an egg. Your class can examine buoyancy and density by finding how many spoons of salt are needed to float an egg. They can predict, experiment, record data, and analyze results.

How do scientists determine when a solution is fully saturated? Scholars address the topic as they observe patterns of precipitation in various concentrations of ions. Using a well plate, pipette, and common chemicals, they collect data...

The Learning Network is featuring an article about First Lady Michelle Obama and her quest to help reduce childhood obesity in America. The article talks about how she has talked with the top three suppliers of school lunches and has...

Students observe crystal growth of Epsom salts and the variables that hinder or help their nucleation and growth. They illustrate a series of drawings/pictures as the crystals grow. They look for the different shapes they form as well...

In this solutions instructional activity, high schoolers read about the characteristics that define a solution such as the solvent and the solute and the homogeneous mixture. They are given a chart with the differences between solution,...

In this solubility worksheet, students answer eighteen questions including reading a graph to indicate solubility of three different compounds at particular temperatures, calculating percent of solutes in a solution, determining molarity...

In this solubility product constant of sodium chloride worksheet, students gather the equipment needed and follow the procedures to determine the solubility product constant of a solute and demonstrate precipitation of a common ion to a...

Students determine the solubility of salt in water at three different temperatures and graph the results. They use the following skills: observing, inferring, and graphing.

Fifth graders determine the difference between a soluble and an insoluble solution and how to increase solubility. They make a saturated solution using solvents at different temperatures.

In this aqueous equilbria worksheet, students write the solubility product expressions for the given salts. Students determine what affects the solubility of salts. Students calculate the pH of a buffer solution. This worksheet has 14...

Pupils are introduced to the characteristics of crystals and what keeps them together. Using the Periodic Table, they examine the various elements and develop a model of an atom. In groups, they place sugar and salt in petri dishes and...
