Yesterday, chemistry class was really funny the topic is Behavior of Solutions. There are three type of solution , satured solution, unsaturated and supersaturated. Saturated solution contains all the solute possible under equilibrium conditions at a given temperature, is less the reaction. Unsaturated a solution that contains less solute, and the last one supersatured a solution that contains more solute than it could under equilibrium conditions. Our chemistry teacher did an example with water and sugar and we were able to see the different solutions and the supersaturaed was the best. Since our teacher inserted a big amount of sugar it was difficult for the sugar to dissolved on the water it was still bounded. Later, our teacher heat the tube it began to bubble up and the sugar that was left was not there anymore.
Later we saw what is the effect of pressure. We tried this process with some cans (pepsi) and there was 4 can cold and the other 4 at a normal temperature. The eight classmate that were with the cans they let it fall at the same time and they were at the same high and that was a mess but hilarious. First of all this process is to prove Henry's law, the higher the partial pressure of a gas, the greater the solubility of the gas at a given temperature.
