Question

Do an activity to show that matter or particles occupy space using salt or sugar with water .write down your observations

Answer 1

ACTIVITY :-

TAKE A BOWL OF WATER AND ADD SUGAR OR SALT AND THEN MIX THEM SO THAT IT GETS DISSOLVED IN THE WATER , THEN ADD MORE OF THE SALT OR SUGAR AND MIX IT, CONTINUE DOING THIS UNTIL YOU COME TO STEP WHERE IT DOESN'T DISSOLVE ANY MORE AND NO MATTER HOW MUCH MORE YOU TRY MIXING THEM IT DOESN'T DISSOLVE .

OBSERVATION :-

WHEN YOU CONTINUOUSLY ADD SUGAR OR SALT TO THE WATER A STEP COMES WHERE NO MORE SUGAR OR SALT IS DISSOLVING AND THEIR PARTICLES SETTLE DOWN.

CONCLUSION:-

WHEN THE PARTICLES OF SUGAR AND SALT ARE BEING DISSOLVED IN WATER IT FITS ITSELF IN BETWEEN THE MOLECULES OF WATER AND WHEN YOU ADD MORE OF THE SALT OR SUGAR MORE OF IT'S PARTICLES FITS ITSELF IN BETWEEN THE MOLECULES AND HENCE THE SPACE GETS FILLED UP AND A POINT COMES WHERE NO MORE SPACE IS AVAILABLE FOR THE PARTICLES TO FIT IN SO THEY DON'T DISSOLVE ANY FURTHER AND SETTLE DOWN THE BOWL.
