DISCUSSION
QUARTER 1- MODULE 6
LET US PRAY…
God, grant us the serenity to accept the things we cannot
change, the courage to change the things we can, and the
wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time;
accepting hardship as a pathway to peace; taking, as Jesus
did, this sinful world as it is, not as we would have it;
trusting that You will make all things right if we surrender to
Your will; so that we may be reasonably happy in this life and
supremely happy with You forever in the next.

Amen.
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
OF SOLUTION
 SOLUTIONS
• Solutions are defined as homogeneous mixtures that are mixed so
thoroughly that neither component can be observed independently of
the other.
• Solutions are all around us. Air, for example, is a solution. If you live
near a lake, a river, or an ocean, that body of water is not pure H2O
but most probably a solution.
• Much of what we drink—for example, soda, coffee, tea, and milk are
solutions.
• Solutions are a large part of everyday life. A lot of the chemistry
occurring around us happens in solution. In fact, much of the
chemistry that occurs in our own bodies takes place in solution.
 COMPONENTS OF SOLUTION
• A solute is a substance that is added to a solvent to form a
solution.
• The solute can exist in all three forms of matter as solid,
liquid, or gas.
• A solvent is a substance that dissolves the solute particles
during the formation of a solution.
• Most solvents are in a liquid state, but some solvents might
be in a gas or solid-state.
 TYPES OF SOLUTION
• Solutions can be any combination of solids, liquids, and gases.
• All solutions are described or characterized by the state of matter of their
solvent, not their solutes.
• There are six combinations of these states of matter in forming solutions:

1. Solid/Solid
2. Solid/Liquid
3. Solid/Gas
4. Liquid/Liquid
5. Liquid/Gas
6. Gas/Gas
TYPES OF SOLUTION
TYPES OF SOLUTION SOLUTE SOLVENT EXAMPLES

Solid- solid Solid Solid Alloys like brass and

bronze

Solid- liquid Solid Liquid The solution of sugar, salt

and water; sugar and
water

Liquid- gas Liquid Gas Aerosol, water vapor in

the air

Gas- gas Gas Gas A mixture of gases

PROPERTIES OF SOLUTION
• A solution is a homogeneous mixture.
• Solutions are mixtures of a solvent and various
solutes.
• Solute particles cannot be separated by
filtration.
• Solutions are stable at given temperature.
• Solutions can be saturated, unsaturated, or
supersaturated.
To form a solution, solutes dissolve into
solvents until the solvent can accept no more
solute under normal conditions.

The amount of solute that the solvent can

handle is called the limit of solubility.
CLASSIFICATIONS OF SOLUTIONS
• A saturated solution is
a solution where the
solvent has reached its
limit of solubility. When
the solvent cannot
dissolve all of the solute,
you might find bits of
solute at the bottom of
the container.
•A solution at less than the limit of solubility
is unsaturated.
•Any solute to a solvent that has reached its
saturation point or limit of solubility creates
a supersaturated solution.
EXAMPLES OF SOLUTIONS
Common solutions in the home
Examples of liquid/liquid solutions are probably in
your kitchen:
• Household liquid cleaners, almost all of which use pure
water as the liquid solvent with various solutes
dissolved into it
• Liquid soap, which is mostly pure water with solutes of
surfactants and detergents
• Disinfectants, which use pure water as the solvent for
various germ-killing chemicals
• Vinegar, a mixture of 97%97% pure water (the solvent)
and 3%3% acetic acid (the solute)
