1. What happens when you stir a spoonful of sugar into hot water?
The sugar dissolves into the water.
2. When sugar or another substance is dissolved in water, it disappears from view and forms
a homogeneous mixture with the water, also called a solution.
If you can’t see the sugar, how can you tell that it is there?
The water tastes sweet and may appear slightly cloudy. [You can boil or evaporate the
water to see solid sugar again.]
3. Does sugar dissolve more easily in hot water or cold water? Hot water
Gizmo Warm-up
A solution generally consists of two parts, a solute that
is dissolved and a solvent that the solute is dissolved
into. For example, sugar is a solute that is dissolved into
the solvent water. In the Solubility and Temperature
Gizmo™, you will study how temperature affects how
much solute will dissolve in a solution.
To begin, check that Potassium nitrate is selected and
the Temp. of the water is 20 °C. Click OK
