MOST ESSENTIAL LEARNING COMPETENCY

Investigate properties of unsaturated or saturated solutions (S7MT-Ic-2)

OBJECTIVE
Investigate the properties of unsaturated, saturated and supersaturated
solutions S7MT-lc-2.5

WHAT’S IN

The solubility of a substance is the maximum amount of a solute that can dissolve in
a given quantity of solvent; it depends on the chemical nature of both the solute and the
solvent and on the temperature and pressure. When a solution contains the maximum
amount of solute that can dissolve under a given set of conditions, it is a saturated solution.
Otherwise, it is unsaturated. Supersaturated solutions, which contain more dissolved solute
than allowed under conditions, are unstable.

WHAT’S NEW

Activity 1. Name Me!

Directions: Identify the type of solution by choosing the right answer in the box. Write
your answer on the space provided.

SOLUBLE SATTURATED SUPERSATURATED

INSOLUBLE UNSATURATED

1. A solute that does not dissolve in a solvent __________________

2. A solution cannot dissolve more solute. __________________
3. A solution that can hold more solute than it can hold. __________________
4. The end result when a solute dissolve in a solvent __________________
5. You are given a 50 ml sugar solution in a beaker. You add 3 teaspoon of sugar in the
beaker and it dissolved. The sugar solution given to you was: __________________

1. The S_ __ __ __ T __ is the component of the mixture that gets dissolved.
2. A solution is a kind of __ __ X __ __ R E
3. A solution is a H __ __ O __ __ N __ __ __ S mixture.

10. A substance is I __ S __ __ __ __ L __ if it is incapable of dissolving.

Activity 2. Tasty Lemonade!

One hot afternoon Michael and John are making lemonade. Help them Identify the solution
as unsaturated, saturated and supersaturated
Directions: Identify which type of solution was created in each step. Check the box with your
correct answer.

Add one packet of sugar, all of the sugar UNSATURATED

crystals dissolved with none settled at the SATURATED
bottom. SUPERSATURATED
Add a second packet of sugar. Not all sugar UNSATURATED
crystals dissolved, and a few settled at the SATURATED
bottom. SUPERSATURATED
Add third packet of sugar. None of the sugar UNSATURATED
dissolved and all settled at the bottom. SATURATED
SUPERSATURATED
They decided to heat the solution. All sugar UNSATURATED
crystal dissolved. The juice tasted very SATURATED
sweet. SUPERSATURATED
They decided to pour the solution in a UNSATURATED
pitcher of water. All sugar crystal dissolved, SATURATED
and they have a tasty lemonade. SUPERSATURATED
