In this experiment, we will learn the difference between weak solution and concentrated solution.
Things Required:
Instant tea
Teaspoon
2 cups
Directions:
Fill the cups with water. To one cup add 1/4 teaspoonful of instant tea and stir. To the second cup add 1 heaping teaspoonful of instant tea and stir. Observe the colour of the tea solution in each cup.
This Is What Happens:
One of the solutions is lighter in colour.
Science Behind It:
The solution with the least amount of tea is less strong. This weak solution is said to be diluted. The darker tea is stronger. A strong solution is more concentrated. Concentrated means that more solute is being dissolved. All solutions are made of a solute and a solvent. The solute is the substance being dissolved in the liquid. In these tea solutions, tea is the solute that is dissolved in the water solvent. .
