A Qualitative Observation is an observation that uses the five senses. sight, smell, hearing, touch, and taste. An example of this would be: "This tree has bright green leaves that have soft bumps on them."
The opposite is a quantitative observation, which is measured in numbers, such as the weight or length of an object. For example, 5 pounds or 100 inches. For instance "The stratosphere begins 40 kilometers above the surface of Earth."

Qualitative observation is a type of observation that involves the collection of non-numerical data. It is based on the subjective interpretation of the observer and does not involve the use of instruments or measurements. Qualitative observations are descriptive in nature, and they often involve the use of senses like sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell to gather information about the subject being observed. This type of observation is commonly used in fields such as Social Sciences, anthropology, and Biology. Examples of qualitative observations may include the color, texture, shape, or behavior of an object or organism

∙ 12y agoA qualitative observation is an observation which does not require measurement.
I might say "I am tall". This is a qualitative observation.
Saying "I'm 1.86 meters tall" would be a quantitative observation.

∙ 11y agoA qualitative observation is a quality about the specimen you are studying. Like if you were studying a flower, and you say that the petals on the flower are a pink color. That would be qualitative data because you are describing a quality about the object or specimen of interest. Hope this helps.

Is a solid dissolving in water qualitative or quantitative?
The observation that a solid is dissolving in water is qualitative in nature. If you wanted to make this a quantitative observation you would have to measure the quantities involved. For example, I placed 5 grams of NaCl in a beaker of 100 ml of water at a temperature of 20o Celcius, and did not stir, and it dissolved in 30 seconds. You may or may not need that information. If all you want to know is whether salt is soluble in water, the qualitative observation may suit your purposes. But in general, quantitative observations are more informative and lead to greater scientific insights.
