dissolve dissolves evaporates filtrate insoluble

mixture saturated solid solute solution
solvent temperature volume

Two or more substances mixed together are called a ____________mixtures___________. A

solute is a solid that ___dissolves_____in a liquid. The liquid that it dissolves into is
called a __Solvents_____. Together they make a __solution____A solid that does
not dissolve in a liquid is called __insoluble_.

If a solution is left for a few days, the water __evaporate _ and a ___solute__
is left in the container.

If a solid is added to a liquid until no more of the solid will

dissolve a __saturated__solution is formed.

The solubility of a solid measures how much of the solid will _dissolve.
When you measure the solubility of a solute you must use the same __volume_____
and type of the solvent at a given __temperature__. [11]
8.3 The table below gives the colours and solubility in water of four compounds.

Name Colour Solubility

sodium chloride white soluble

zinc carbonate white insoluble

iron sulfate green soluble

copper carbonate green insoluble

The compounds were added to separate beakers of water. There was enough
water to completely dissolve the soluble compounds. The contents of each beaker
were filtered.
a One of the compounds left a white solid in the filter paper. What is the name of this compound?
_________________Sodium Chloride_________________________ [1]
b What would be the color of the filtrate from this beaker? [1]
________________white_______________________________
c Describe how you would obtain pure crystals of iron sulfate from a mixture
of copper carbonate and iron sulfate.

8.4 Ibrahim and Emmanuel have been investigating the amount of copper sulfate that
can be dissolved in water at different temperatures. They added copper sulfate until
no more would dissolve and they carefully measured the mass of the copper sulfate
they added. Here are their results.

Temperature of water / °C 20 30 40 50 60 70 80

Mass of copper sulfate 22 24 28 32 30 46 58

b What interval did they use for the temperatures? [1]
________________________________________________________________
c Name a variable the boys should have kept the same. [1]
__________________________________________________________________
d Which is the independent variable? [1]
