(soluble/clear/insoluble) after shaking.
2. We say salt is (soluble/clear/insoluble) in water. Water
Clear
3. Sand does not dissolve in water. We say it is
(soluble/clear/insoluble).
4. A liquid that can dissolve another substance is called
a (solvent/solution/solute).
Substance Shake
5. A substance that can dissolve in a liquid is called a
(filtrate/solvent/solution/solute).
6. The warmer a cup of tea is, the more sugar will be able to dissolve in it. We say that the
warmer the tea, the greater the (speed/solubility/saturation) of the sugar.
7. If no more sugar can be dissolved in a cup of water, then the solution is said to be
(soluble/full/residue/saturated)
8. If a mixture of chalk and water is filtered using a filter paper and funnel, the clear water
that passes through the paper is known as the (residue/solute/filtrate).

9. If 30 grams of salt are dissolved into 120 grams of water to make a salt solution, how
much will the salt solution weigh (in grams)?
10. Without using the word "dissolved" in your answer, describe what has happened to the
salt particles in question 9.
