Properties of Solutions

POSTLAB SESSION
Recap

What is a mixture?
What are the two types of mixtures?
What is the difference between homogeneous and
heterogeneous mixtures?
What are solutions?
What are the two parts of a solution?
What is a solute? A solvent?
Are solutions always liquid?
Before we move forward

James loves eating fried chicken. Instead of ketchup,


he prefer dipping this in vinegar. He prepared
vinegar and added a pinch of salt. He mixed the
vinegar so the salt will dissolve.
Q1: Did James prepare a solution?
Q2: What is the solute?
Q3: What is the solvent?
Q4. If James added ground pepper to his vinegar, will
it still be a solution?
Activity 2

compare the evidence gathered with the predictions


made;
describe the properties of solutions based on
observations.
Samples: sugar, salt, mongo seeds, powdered juice,
cooking oil, vinegar
Other materials: clear containers, improvised funnel,
stirring rod, filter papers

Filtration

used to separate the


components of a mixture
the liquid that passes
through the filter paper is
called the filtrate
the material that will be
left on the filter paper is
called the residue
What is the evidence that the components of a
mixture have been separated through filtration?

Properties of Solutions

They have uniform appearance.


They have a single phase.
Their components cannot be separated through
filtration.
How can the particles of solutions pass through
the filter paper?

The particles of
solutions are that very small

they can pass through


the holes of the filter
paper!
Why do solutions have uniform appearance?

The very small particles of a


solution are not seen by
the naked eye, thus, we
see only one phase!
Summing it up

Solutions have only one phase thus, they have


uniform appearance.
The components of solutions cannot be separated
through filtration because their particles are very
small that they can pass through the holes of the
filter paper.

Properties of solutions
Going back

If James will filter the vinegar mixed with salt, will


he be able to separate the salt from the vinegar?
Why?
True or False?

1. Solutions are homogeneous because they have two


phases.
2. The particles of a solution are bigger than the holes
of a filter paper.
3. The particles of solutions are not visible to the
naked eye.
4. Through filtration, the components of a solution
can be separated.
5. There is no residue left on the filter paper when
solutions are filtered.
Next session

Review the procedures for Activity 3. Construct a


flow chart for the procedures.
Be sure to bring the materials needed!
Bring index card per group. Write the names of
the members of the group.
