How Temperature Affects The Solubility Of Salt Experiment
Introduction: We are conducting this experiment to identify how temperature affects the solubility of salt. To add on, by making this experiment we could see how temperature affects the solubility of a substance, the maximum number of solute particles that can dissolve in solvent particles. Also, how by changing the temperature we could see how if the solubility of the solute would either increase or decrease. This experiment connects with information we learn in class because of how in class we learned about the two different types of particles in a substance, which are solute and solvent,that in a substance the solute dissolve and could reach a maximum solubility. To add on, in this experiment we are finding the maximum solubility …show more content…

Question:
How does the water temperature affects the solubility of salt.

Hypothesis: If the water temperature increase, then the solubility of salt increase because in wps.prenball.com stated that most solubility of solid decrease as the temperature decrease. So, if we make the temperature colder than, the solubility of salt will decrease.

Variables:
Independent variable: Temperature of the water.

Dependent variable: Milliliter of salt.

Constants: Bath, small beakers, and big beakers, stirring sticks.

Control group: The water with zero salt.

Materials:
2x Big beakers
2x Small beakers
2x Stirring sticks
2x Thermometer
1x Cup of table salt
1x Spoon that can hold 5ml of salt

Procedures:
Step 1- Put 300ml of water in each two beakers to form a water bath to make the temperature the same.
Step 2- Use the syringe to get 30 ml of water from the big beaker.
Step 3- Place the water from the syringe to the small beakers. Step 4- Place the thermometers in both of big beakers each to check if the temperature stays the same.
Step 5- Add 5 ml of salt in the small

During our experiment we might have came across some errors as we go through the experiment. Such as, some human errors like, reading the thermometer wrong as the actual temperature was higher or lower than the number we thought it was.
To add on, another error from our experiment is the way we use the stirring stick as we did not mix the salt and water properly and started to think that it has reached its climax.Therefore, there are some errors that exist in our experiment.

To improve and minimize error for this experiment in the future is, by being careful at looking at the thermometer and to avoid other human errors in the process. To add on, another way to improve the errors is by taking time to mix the mixture as I mix it at least for 3 min just to make the salt dissolved. Also by checking the temperature at the end of the mixture just to make sure the temperature stay the same so the solubility would not change during the

    So to put the solutions into the beaker, first take salt and find the weight of it. It you want a 5% solution; the salt’s weight has to be 5 grams or close to 5 grams. Do the same for the other beakers. Of course, Beaker A will have no salt in it because it doesn’t have a solution with salt. Cover each beaker with the same kind of cover and wait for 24 hours to see what…

    Introduction: Solubility is a substance’s ability to be dissolved in a liquid, usually water, and some substances are more soluble than others. A solution can be saturated, unsaturated or supersaturated. Temperature plays a large role in the solubility of substances. For example, on table G of the Chemistry reference tables it shows that 10g of KClO3 will dissolve in 100g of water at about 25°C, but at about 48°C, 20g will dissolve. The higher the temperature is, usually the more soluble a solute becomes, except when you’re talking about gasses. For example, NH3 becomes less soluble as the temperature rises. The relationship between solubility and temperature can be expressed by a solubility curve. A solubility curve is a graph of the solubility of a solute in grams per 100 grams of water (shown on the Y axis) at various temperatures in degrees Celsius (shown on the X Axis). Each solute has a different curve.…

    Take open end of capillary tube and tap it gently into sample. Take tin wipe and place over the opening. Gently tab it so the sample will funnel to the bottom of the tube. You may also use a graduated pipette to accomplish this. Now, place the capillary tube in the designated spot in the melting apparatus, and once placed, turn the apparatus on. You will note observations through the eye piece. Make note of two observations: temperature when the sample starts to sweat and when the sample is completely melted. This will constitute the melt temperature range for your sample. Turn the dial to number 6 on the first run so as to run the temperature gauge to 150 degrees in five minutes. On the second run, the dial can be adjusted to 4 when you are 30-40 degrees away from previous temperature taken. You may also want to verify the temperature melting point chart to properly correlate the dial that needs to be used for a sample. Once you are done, turn off the apparatus, remove capillary tube and remove thermometer. Make sure to not place the thermometer horizontally to avoid breaking it; place it in the proper holder under the hood.…
