OBJECTIVE:
The goal of this project is to measure the solubilities of
some common chemicals: Table salt (NaCl) Epsom salts
(MgSO4) sugar (sucrose, C12H22O11).
Introduction:
A good part of the substances we deal with in daily life, such as
milk, gasoline, shampoo, wood, steel and air are mixtures.
When the mixture is homogenous, that is to say, when its
components are intermingled evenly, it is called a solution.
There are various types of solutions, and these can be
categorized by state (gas, liquid, or solid). The chart below
gives some examples of solutions in different states. Many
essential chemical reactions and natural processes occur in
liquid solutions, particularly those containing water (aqueous
solutions) because so many things dissolve in water. In fact,
water is sometimes referred to as the universal solvent. The
electrical charges in water molecules help dissolve different
kinds of substances. Solutions form when

PRECAUTIONS:
While adding the solute to the solvent, the solution should be
stirred slowly so as to avoid the formation of any globules.
Stirring should not be vigorous as the kinetic energy of the
molecules might change due to which solubility can increase.
While stirring, contact with the walls of the container should be
avoided as with every collision, an impulse is generated which
makes the dissolved solute particles rearrange themselves. As

RESULT:
The saturated solutions of NaCl, MgSO4 and C12H22O11 were
made and observed. The observations agreed with the related
theory within the range of experimental error.
