MELC 5
Express concentrations of solutions quantitatively by preparing different
concentrations of mixtures according to uses and availability of materials.
Learning Objectives
• Describe concentration of solutions
quantitatively and qualitatively.
• Differentiate diluted from concentrated
solution.
• Prepare solutions using available
materials at home.
