How soluble is it? ✩


All soluble substances do not dissolve equally well. Sugar dissolves very easily,
while other substances, such as salt, dissolve less easily. The amount of solute
that will dissolve in a solvent is a measure of its solubility.

About how many teaspoons of salt dissolve in the water?

About how many teaspoons of bath salts dissolve in the water?

Another substance is more soluble than bath salts but less soluble than
Epsom salts. What range of teaspoons would you expect to dissolve?

List the solutes in the bar graph in order of their solubility.


Write the name of the most soluble substance first.

Science investigation
Does the size of a sugar particle affect its
solubility? Obtain sugar cubes, powdered
sugar, and granulated sugar. Design
and conduct an experiment to see
which type of sugar is most soluble.

Science investigation
The child should place the samples of sugar in water, then time
how long each takes to dissolve. The larger the particle
of sugar, the longer it will take. Children often
confuse dissolving with melting. Sugar does not
melt in the water; it dissolves.
