Investigating Solubality

Aim:

To investigate the solubility of Calcium Chloride and Magnesium oxide to see which is the most soluble in water.

Equipment: 

  • A 250ml beaker
  • 100ml measuring cylinder 
  • Calcium chloride
  • Magnesium oxide
  • A stirring rod
  • A teaspoon
  • A ruler

Method:

1. Fill the beaker with 100ml of tap water
2. Add a level teaspoon of Calcium chloride. A level teaspoon is obtained by running your ruler across the edges of the teaspoon.
3. Stir the solution until all of the Calcium chlorides has dissolved.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until no more calcium chloride will dissolve into the solution.
5. Record how many teaspoons of calcium chloride were added.
6. Repeat the expirement, with the magnesium oxide.
