Investigating Solubility.

Aim:To investigate the solubility of baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate) and table salt (sodium chloride) to see which is most soluble in water.

Equipment:

  • A 250 ml beaker
  • 100 ml measuring cylinder 
  • Magnesium Oxide
  • Calcium Chloride
  • A stirring rod
  • A teaspoon
  • A ruler
Method:

  1. Fill the with 100 ml of water.
  2. Add a level teaspoon of baking soda.A level teaspoon is obtained by running your ruler across the edges of the teaspoon).
  3. Stir the solution until all of the baking soda has dissolved.
  4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until no more baking soda will dissolve into the solution.
  5. record how many teaspoons of baking soda were added.
  6. Repeat the experiment,with the table salt.
