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.
Increasing the pressure decreases the volume of gas bubbles and does not increase the rate of dissolving a solid in water.
No, dissolving a LIFESAVER candy in warm water is not considered melting. Melting typically refers to a solid turning into a liquid due to heat, while dissolving involves a solid substance breaking down into individual molecules and dispersing throughout a solvent, in this case, water.
Sugar dissolving in water. Salt dissolving in water. Oil not dissolving in water. Ethanol dissolving in water. Carbon dioxide dissolving in soda.
Testing for phosphate in a lake near a factory would typically be a quantitative analysis, as it would involve measuring the concentration of phosphate present in the water, usually in units like milligrams per liter. This type of analysis provides a specific numeric value for the amount of phosphate in the water, rather than just a qualitative indication of its presence.
Melting is a physical process where a solid turns into a liquid when heat is applied, such as ice melting into water. Dissolving is a chemical or physical process where a solid substance disperses uniformly in a liquid to form a solution, like sugar dissolving in water.
Its the amount of water so it is quantitative
A qualitative observation merely indicates that the subject possesses a certain quality, for example "this water is salty". A quantitative observation takes a measurement of the quality, for example "this salty water has a concentration of 10% salt".
I'm going to make a guess you're asking the difference between qualitative and quantitative. Qualitative means what kind of and quantitative means how much of. It's easiest to explain this in chemical terms. Starting with a glass of salty water, you can taste it and say it contains salt -- that's qualitative. If you evaporate the water and measure how much salt remains -- that's quantitative .
Quantitative means having numbers and measurements. qualitatitive does not. Qualitative Example: mix hydrogen and oxygen and you get water. Quantitative Example: mix two moles of Hydrogen and one mole of Oxygen to get one mole of water.
Break up the solid
If I had a 25% solution of sodium chloride and I did a quantitative measurement, the interest would be in HOW MUCH was present. In this case it would be 25%. If I did a qualitative measurement, all we would be interested in is - WHAT IS PRESENT. In this case sodium chloride and water. In simple terms, qualitative is "What is present" and quantitative is "How much is present"
Qualitative and Quantitative determiners are used before nouns. Qualitative determiner is a describing word or adjective used before noun to show the quality of the noun. Eg.: Beautiful picture Beautiful - qualitative determiner or qualitative adjective Quantitative determiner is used before uncountable nouns to show the quantity of the noun. Eg.: A kilo of rice A glass of water A kilo of, A glass of - quantitative determiners rice, water - non count or uncountable nouns Note: Determiners are also known as Adjectives. Before the countable nouns we use Numerical Determiners. Eg.: Three apples Three - Numerical Determiner apples - Noun Hope I could help you out. All the Best!
Quantitative is basically the numbers and figures of whatever you have done.Qualitative is the verbal use, so words and descriptions for what you've done.E.g.At school, we did an experiment:Purpose: to see if you put one hand in cold water and one hand in hot water for 30 seconds and then put them both in tap water, would one be hotter than the other?So the quantitative results would be what temperature the water was, how much water there was etc.The qualitative results would be whether you felt the water was hotter or not etc.
Dissolving in water is a physical change.
is dissolving a chemical or physical changeWell, it is not. Because you are not changing the chemical identity of the solid. It's still solid chemically and water chemically.
Dissolving is what happens to sugar when you put it into hot water. It goes from being a solid to being a liquid. Soap, when placed in hot water, will also dissolve.
Increasing the pressure decreases the volume of gas bubbles and does not increase the rate of dissolving a solid in water.
