A student adds 5 g each of sand, sugar, and salt to 50mL of water. Did he make a solution? Explain.
Yes,because he was adding all of the g and ml. So it is a yes
yea lol
Yes because the student was adding all of the g and ml.So it is a yes
cjhvioid
yes, but the sand is not part of it.
He did make a solution
Yea cause he added the ml and g
To determine if the student made a solution, we need to understand what a solution is. A solution is a homogenous mixture that forms when one substance (called the solute) dissolves in another substance (called the solvent). In this case, water is the solvent since it is the substance that dissolves the other solid substances.
To determine if the substances dissolved and formed a solution, we can consider the solubility of each substance. Sand is insoluble in water, which means it does not dissolve. Sugar is soluble in water, meaning it dissolves, and salt is also soluble in water.
Therefore, since the sugar and salt dissolved in water, we can conclude that the student made a solution with sugar and salt dissolved in water. However, since the sand did not dissolve, it remained as separate particles suspended in the water. So, technically, the student made a mixture rather than a true solution because one of the substances (sand) did not dissolve.
