Intro: Last week in science we mixed copper nitrate with Sodium Hydroxide to make a bright blue precipitate.
1. Which test tube had the most concentrated sample of copper nitrate?
- The first test tube
2. When we added water what were we doing to the concentration of the solution?
- You are diluting it
3. Which concentration of copper nitrate formed the most precipitate, Why do you think this is the case?
- The first test tube because there was more chemicals in that test tube rather than the other 3.
Key terms:
Filtering Is when you can separate the solute (solid) from the solvent (Liquid).
Separate means to split apart.
Once the solvent has been filtered that is called the filtrate.
