Dilution Teacher Resources

The Earth is over 70% water and so are our bodies. What makes water so special? Learn about water and its properties as it relates to solutions, dilutions, electrolytes, and molarity.

The final video in a 30-part series explains how to calculate serial dilutions. Using two practice problems, it shows each step in the process and describes how to solve.

There's no need to water down the resource. A tutorial takes learners through the process of creating dilutions for any solution. Specifically, it focuses on serial dilutions with successive factors of 10.

Amateur chemists define and describe properties of solutions, compare solubilities, explain how solutes affect freezing and boiling points, describe acid and base properties, and more! This educational PowerPoint provides information and...

Future chemists practice laboratory techniques by creating a monochloramine solution. The objectives are to use of dilution, 9concentration, and measurement skills and to prepare a solution that will be used in a water treatment...

There's no risk of injury when working with virtual HCl! Challenge your young chemists with making calculations to create a 3M solution of HCl from the concentrated acid. They first calculate the correct ratios of HCl and water and then...

What could be so difficult about preparing a solution? Show science scholars the proper way to prepare standard solutions using a video from JFR Science. The narrator discusses solution preparation using a solid solute as well as...

There's no diluted learning here! Young chemists conduct a virtual lab exploration to practice their stoichiometry skills. By manipulating simulated solutions, they create a solution of a specific glucose molarity.

Where did the pH scale come from? Take a deeper look at a most important measure of ion concentration using a simulated physical determination. Young chemists prepare a series of dilutions after determining a dilution factor for the...

Many people use dilution when cooking sauces, soups, and gravy. The 29th lesson in a 30-part series explains how scientists use dilution in a chemistry lab. The activity focuses on the equation for solving dilution problems and...

What's the solution to gaining insight into your class' progress? Give this brief quiz a try! Part 10 of a 14-installment series on states of matter tests learners' skills in the areas of dilution and the properties of water,...

Scientists require specific chemical solutions for their experiments. In the seventh and final installment in a series that integrates chemistry and algebra II, scholars learn to set up a system of equations to solve the volume of a...

Students determine that the relative concentration of copper ions in water can be determined by a color comparison. They make a copper (II) sulfate solution of a given concentration. Students dilute their initial solutions until their...

Mixtures and solutions are different; one can be separated fairly easily and the other cannot. This hands-on experiment was written specifically for learners with visual impairments or blindness. They will use lemonade and trail mix to...

Systematically diluting a full-strength sample of food coloring is meant to help earth scientists understand concentration in parts per million. While they will enjoy the lab exercise, it might be a challenge to help them relate it to...

In this solutions worksheet, students answer 18 questions about solutions, saturation of solutions, solvents and solubility.

For this solutions worksheet, students calculate the molarity and solubility for given reactions. Students work on dilution, precipitation, and titration reactions. This worksheet has 15 problems to solve.

What did one titration say to the other titration? We should meet at the end point! Young chemists perform four experiments: dilute solution, neutralization, titration, and figuring pH/pOH. 

In this aqueous solutions worksheet, students will explore the characteristics of solutions, including the ability of different compounds to dissolve in the solutions. This worksheet has 10 true or false statements and 8 short answer...

If you are not part of the solution, then you are part of the precipitate. The presentation covers solutions, suspensions, solubility, dissociation, and acid/base reactions. This is the 19th lesson in a series of 26.

Does a concentrated solution or a diluted solution contain more particles? The 24th video in a 30-part series answers this question as an introduction to figuring concentration using the standard formulas. Through two different formula...

Learners demonstrate the meaning of dilution and concentration and how pollution can affect the water that you drink. They perform an experiment to calculate the final concentration and dilution factor of solutions. They record the color...

Students improve their skills and comprehend the particular application for which serial dilutions are a tool. Serial dilutions are often used in microbiology, biotechnology, and in chemistry classes, to name just a few.

In this solutions worksheet, students balance chemical equations, classify reactions by the type of reaction it represents, and review the solubility rules. Students practice working out double displacement, neutralization, and dilution...
