of students Learning Area Learning Objective : Science : Form 2 Alpha : 27 February 2012 : 9.20 am 10.40 am (80 minutes) : 28 students : Water and solution : Analysing solution and solubility

Learning Outcomes: A student is able to: 1. explain what solute, solvent and solution are 2. contrast and compare between dilute solution, concentrated and saturated solution. 3. explain what suspension is 4. explain what solubility is, 5. explain the factors affecting the solubility of solutes in water. 6. explain the importance of water as a universal solvent in life, 7. give examples on the uses of organic solvents in our everyday life. Scientific concept Definition of solubility, solvent, solution. Factor affecting the solubility of solutes in water Materials, equipments and resource materials: Projector Computer White paper Marker

Consideration of Safety Precautions: No Prior Knowledge: Students have already know about solubility in their daily life.
