What is It
You learned from the previous module all about heterogeneous and homogeneous
mixtures. One example of a homogenous mixture is known as solution. Solution is a
mixture that has a uniform composition. To form this, two substances are being used: the
solute and solvent.
SOLUTION
IS COMPOSED OF
SOLUTE SOLVENT
+ =
Water
(Solvent) (Solute) Sugar solution
In this case, the water in the glass is the solvent, the sugar (substance being
dissolved) is the solute and the result is called sugar solution.
6
Water
Here is a trivia! Did you know that water is called the universal solvent? Water is
considered to be the “universal solvent” because many substances can be dissolved from
it just like in the example mentioned above. Here is another example; a pinch of salt is
added to the water.
Water
7
An unsaturated solution is a type of solution
containing less amount of solute in a given amount of
solvent leaving no traces of it. This simply means that the
solvent can still dissolve more solute and it forms a single
phase.
Unsaturated solution

Activity 3. Stir Me
Directions: Perform the activity by following the procedure below. Answer the guide
question below and write it in your Science activity notebook.
Materials Needed:
Glass (transparent), Tap Water, Sugar, Tablespoon
Procedure:
Table 1. Amount of solute in a solution.
1. Prepare a three- fourth glass of water.
Number of tablespoon
2. Put ½ tablespoon of sugar.
3. Stir until the sugar is totally dissolved in
water.
4. Write unsaturated on Table 1 Column 2 if you observed that there is no undissolved
sugar on the solution.
5. Repeat steps 2, 3, and 4 but this time increase the amount of sugar by 1 tablespoon.
Stop until 2 tablespoons of sugar are added into the glass of water.
6. Do not throw the sugar solution. You will use the solution in Lesson 2 about saturated
solutions. Keep the solution in a safe place.
Q1. Based on the activity, what have you observed to the set-up as you increased the
amount of sugar to two (2) tablespoons? __________________________________

Lesson
2 Saturated Solutions
From your previous lesson, you have learned that in an unsaturated solution, all
solutes were completely dissolved by the solvent leaving no traces of solutes.
In this lesson, you will investigate what will happen if you add more solutes to the
solution.
