Discovering Molarity
by Amanda Stalvey
Students get to discover the relationship between solutes and solvents in relation to concentration. As an inquiry based lab, students will mix their own concentrations of Kool-Aid or other powdered drink mix with water and using mass by difference, calculate how much water and drink mix was used. After mixing these solutions, students will then drink and rate their solutions. This lab allows students to learn and practice molarity calculations through lab experimentation.
