The Scientific Method
Background Information for Learners
The scientific method is a tool used by scientists to answer questions about the world. It
follows step-by-step procedures which are logical and sequential. This is often conducted in
scientific investigations which seek to find out the truth regarding a certain phenomenon.
There are series of steps involved in Scientific Method.
The first step is to make OBSERVATIONS. It consists of receiving knowledge through our
senses from our environment. Observing things around us will lead to good scientific questions
that will recognize a problem we wanted to resolve.
Second step is to conduct a BACKGROUND RESEARCH in order to learn more on the

problem. Learning what others have been discovered about the problem will be easier to
conduct an investigation.
Third step is to formulate a HYPOTHESIS. This is also known as an educated guess for
the possible solution to a problem. It is in the form of statement that is used to predict the
outcome of an experiment.
Fourth step is to design a procedure for an EXPERIMENT. This is done to test the possible
solution to a problem or hypothesis. When you design an experiment, you are controlling and
measuring variables. The things that are changing in an experiment are called variables. There
are three types of variables in an experiment. The controlled or constant variable (cannot
changed), independent variable (can stand, changed and controlled) and dependent variable
(one that is tested and measured).
Fifth step is to ANALYZE DATA OR INFORMATION collected during an experiment
and to draw CONCLUSIONS (summary of findings) whether to accept or reject the
hypothesis. Data can be qualitative (describes qualities or characteristics) or quantitative
(measures values).
And last step is to COMMUNICATE THE RESULTS. This is to present findings of the
conducted experiment for the information of others.

Activity 4: Let’s Analyze!

Directions: Read the scientific investigation story below. Choose the letter that corresponds to
your answer.
A group of Grade 7- Rizal students came across

one interesting vlog of their favorite social media
influencer that touches the idea of giving music to plants.
It is from this fascinating idea that they thought of
conducting similar investigation as part of their
requirements in their science subject.
They started to read books, surf the internet and

study researches on the effect of music to plant growth.
Members from the group continued to formulate their
respective hypotheses. They went on performing a simple
experiment.
The group selected two San Francisco plants of

similar size planted on the same type of soil and kind of
pots. Both plants were healthy. Each plant were placed in
separate rooms with a window exposed to full sunlight and
were watered with equal amounts every day. They
measured the height of the plants.
Once a day, they played classical music on room 1

for about one hour while leaving room 2 with no music
played. Over a period of two weeks, they noted significant
differences in each plant’s growth.

b. There is no change in size of the San Francisco plants because it got equal
amounts of water.
c. Music can help plant grow faster.
d. Plants need good soil to grow faster.
3. How did they test their hypothesis?

a. They placed two plants in one room and gave music to each.
b. They planted the San Francisco in different pots and gave music to each.
c. Same plants in similar soil and pots; both receive music.

Activity 5: Try It Out

Directions: Identify the problem in the given situation and give a conclusion using the steps
of Scientific Method.
You bought a dozen of pandesal bread in the nearby bakery store from your house. You
ate 10 pieces of it during snacks time in
the afternoon with your friends. The
two unconsumed pandesal bread were
left inside the paper bag over the next
three days. You noticed that after two
humid days, tiny water droplets
appearing like couple of sweat had
accumulated inside the bread bag
which was dark. The leftover pandesal
bread began to moisten. During the 3rd
day, you eventually seen clusters of
grayish spots on the bread surface and
it smelled a foul odor. You asked your
mother about it and she advised not to eat them anymore because molds were already present
in the pandesal.

LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEETS

Elements and Compounds
The substance of the universe is called matter. Matter is generally referred to as anything
that has mass and takes up space. Matter is classified into pure substance and mixture. Pure
Substance is being classified into elements and compounds.
Elements are substances that cannot be separated into simpler substances. The smallest
particles of matter are called atoms. An atom is the smallest particle of an element. A
chemical symbol is a shorthand method used by chemist to represent an element. Chemists use
one or two letters to represent elements.
All matter is made up of elements which are substances with only one type of atom. There
are 118 elements currently on the Periodic Table. The modern periodic table is used to organize
all the known elements. They are arranged in the table by increasing atomic number. Each
element is represented by its chemical symbol and the number above each symbol is its atomic
number.
Elements can be classified into three: metal, nonmetal and metalloid or semi-metal.
Metals are typically hard, shiny, malleable, ductile and good conductors of heat and electricity.
Nonmetals are usually brittle, non-malleable, have dull appearance and poor conductors of heat
and electricity. Semi-metals or metalloid are elements that exhibit both the properties of metal
and nonmetal.
The metalloids separate the metals and nonmetals on a periodic table. Also, many periodic
tables have a stair-step line on the table identifying the element groups. The line begins at boron
(B) and extends down to polonium (Po). Elements to the left of the line are considered metals.
Elements just to the right of the line exhibit properties of both metals and nonmetals and are
termed metalloids or semimetals. Elements to the far right of the periodic table are nonmetals.
The exception is hydrogen (H), the first element on the periodic table. At ordinary temperatures
and pressures, hydrogen behaves as a nonmetal.

A compound is a substance formed when two or more elements are chemically
joined. When the elements are joined, the atoms lose their individual properties and have
different properties from the elements they are composed of. A chemical formula is used a
quick way to show the composition of compounds.
In this activity sheets, you are going to understand and recognize the properties of elements
and compounds.
Recognize that substances are classified into elements and compounds (S7MT-Ig-h-5).

Distinguish Mixtures from Substances Based on a Set of Properties
There are two classifications of matter:
Substance
Substances are form of matter that has definite and unchanging chemical compositions.
Substances are further broken down into elements and compounds.
Properties of substance:
1. Has constant chemical composition and characteristic properties.
2. It cannot be separated into components without chemical bonds.
3. Substance can be solid, liquid, gas and plasma. Changes in temperature or pressure can
cause substances to shift between the different phases of matter.
Mixture
A mixture is a material system made up of two or more different substances which are
mixed but not combined chemically. It is a physical combination of two or more substances
in which the identities of the individual substances are retained. Mixtures take the form of
alloys, solutions, suspensions and colloids. The amount of each substance in the mixture is
not fixed.
In this activity sheets, you will be able to distinguish mixture from substances based on
a set of properties.

Properties of Solutions

A solution has two components; the solute and the solvent. A component present in
small amounts is called solute and the component present in greater amount is called solvent.
The solute is the substance that is being dissolved, while the solvent is the dissolving medium. Solute
and solvents may be solid, liquids, or gases.

Investigate properties of unsaturated or saturated solutions (S7MT-1c-2).

LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEETS

Concentrations of Solutions
You had learned from your previous lesson the properties of a solution. You were able
to find out that a solution is formed when a solute is added in a solvent forming a single phase
that appears uniform throughout. Solutions may come in solids, liquids or gas depending on
its solute and solvent.
The concentration of a solution tells the quantity of solute present in a given solvent.
A solution that contains a very small amount of solute is classified as diluted solution while
a solution that contains a large amount of solute is classified as concentrated solution.
Concentrations of solutions can be described qualitatively and quantitatively. Qualitative
description is simply observing the appearance of the solution while quantitative description
gives the exact amount of solute and solvent present in the solution. It can be expressed in
percent by mass and percent by volume.

Express concentrations of solutions quantitatively by preparing different concentrations
of mixtures according to uses and availability of materials (S7MT-Id-3).
Activity 1: WORD MATCH

Directions: Match the statements described in column A to the words in column B. Write the
letter of your answer on the space provided.
COLUMN A COLUMN B
1. It contains small amount of dissolved solute in a a. solvent
given amount of solvent.
2. The component of a solution that comes in smaller b. concentrations

amount as compared to the other component.
3. It describes the relative amount of solute and c. diluted

solvent in a given volume of solution.
4. A solution that contains a large amount of d. solute

dissolved solute for a certain volume of solvent.
5. It is the dissolving medium in a solution. d. concentrated
Activity 2: RIGHT OR WRONG?

Directions: Write T if the statement is True and write F if the statement is False.
_____1. Concentrations of solutions depends on the amount of solute present in the solution.
_____2. Adding more water to a concentrated solution will affect its concentration.
_____3. Vinegar labeled as 5% acidity is considered a diluted solution.
_____4. Commercial muriatic acid needs to be diluted before use.
_____5. A 70% ethyl alcohol solution is a better than a 40% solution.

_____6. A solution that contains a very large amount of solute is classified as diluted solution.
Answer the following questions briefly.
1. Why is it important to know the concentration of solutions that you used or buy?

Activity 3: PERCENTAGE MASS
Percent by mass expresses the concentration of a solution in terms of the mass of solute
in grams to the mass of the solution.
For example, a salt solution of 10% concentration means that for every 100 grams of
the solution it contains 10 grams of salt and 90 grams of water.
Percent by mass can be computed using the equation:

𝑚𝑎𝑠𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑒
% mass = x 100%
𝑚𝑎𝑠𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛
Directions: Study the given problems and solve what is being asked for.
1. A solution contains 5 grams of salt and 195 grams of water.
A. How many grams of solution are present?
B. What is the percent by mass concentration of the solution?
2. A sugar solution has a mass of 500 grams. The solution contains 200 grams of sugar.
A. How many grams of water is used in the solution?
B. What is the percent by mass concentration of the solution?
3. Sodium acetate is a compound that readily dissolves in water. How much sodium
acetate should you used in 135 grams of water to produce a 25% solution?
Activity 4: PERCENTAGE VOLUME

The concentration of liquid solute and liquid solvent like that of rubbing is expressed
in percent by volume.
A 70% rubbing alcohol solution contains 70 ml of isopropyl alcohol and 30 ml water
in a 100 ml volume of the solution.
You can compute for the percent by volume using the equation:
𝑣𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑒
% volume = 𝑣𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 x 100%
Directions: Complete the given table.

Volume of solute Volume of Volume of Concentration
(Isopropyl solvent solution (Percent by
Alcohol) (Water) volume)
40 ml 60 ml
25 ml 175 ml
8 ml 50 ml
250 ml 70 %
376 ml 400 ml
Answer the following questions briefly.

1. Which concentration is best to buy? Why _______________________________________
