Physical Properties of Matter Melting Point Boiling Point Solubility
Melting Point The temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid. The melting point varies depending on the substance

Physical Properties of Matter Melting Point Boiling Point Solubility
What is solubility? 5. Solubility = how easily a solute dissolves in the solvent to form a solution or a homogeneous mixture. Solubility is a physical property of matter
What is a saturated solution?
Saturation 6. Saturated: when a solution contains the maximum solute it can hold. Cannot fit any more (any extra solute added would sink to the bottom)

Exit Slip 1. What is the difference between a solute and a solvent. 2. When a solution has as much solute as it can hold we call this ________________. 3. When a solution has less solute than it can hold we call this _________________. 4. Does the size of the sample affect its melting point or boiling point? 5. Why are melting point, boiling point, and solubility physical properties?
