Texas Instruments: The Effect of Temperature on the Rate of Dissolving
In this activity, students will use a Temperature Sensor to collect data and then analyze that data to determine the effect of temperature increases on the rate of dissolving. They will identify temperature as a factor in dissolving rate...

Concord Consortium: Stem Resources: Solubility
Learners can use this web-based activity to study solutions, as far as the intermolecular attractive forces that allow or do not allow a solvent to dissolve in a solute. Also discussed includes the solubility rule "like dissolves like"...

Texas Instruments: A Sweet Drink Adventure 7
Students determine how the temperature of water affects the dissolving time of a sugar cube. They create, interpret and analyze graphs of data, find an equation of the line of best fit, and relate slope to rate of change.
