What is diffusion?
The movement of particles from a place of high concentration to low concentration.
What is a melting point?
The temperature where solids melt into liquids
What is a boiling point?
The temperature where liquids evaporate and turn into gas
What is a common way to increase the reliability of an experiment?
By repeating it
What can affect solubility if kept in the same amount of liquid?
Temperature
Describe an experiment to find the solubility of copper sulphate at different temperatures
- Weight 100 grams of water and a beaker and note the total weight down
- Add little bit by little bit of the copper sulphate and then stop when it is just fully dissolved (substance is saturated)
- Weigh this now and subtract the original weight of water and beaker
