Directions 
 
Part I

1. Get an 8oz container (plastic cup) and plastic spoon. 
 
2. Put a small amount of Kool-Aid (flavor of your chose) into a paper muffin tin. 
 
3. Fill plastic cup about 1/2 filled with tap water. 
 
4. Put all material on pan of Cent-o-gram balance and weigh all of it. Put spoon in plastic cup. Be careful not spill Kool-Aid crystals. 
 
5. Recored total mass of all material. 
 
6. Then carefully add the Kool-Aid crystal to water and put paper muffin tin back on pan of scale. 
 
7. Using spoon, stir solution until Kool-Aid has dissolved. Do not take cup or spoon off of pan. 
 
8. Reweigh all the material (everything should still be on pan and record total mass.. 
 
 
Part II 
 
9. Now you are going to get a piece of weighing paper and fold it twice (like you always do to weigh solids) 
 
10. Add some Kool-Aid solid to the weigh paper. 
 
11. Add a small (several crystals) of the Kool-Aid and stir until dissolved ( keep plastic spoon in cup). Reweigh and record new weight. 
 
12. Repeat Step 9-11 two more time or until you can not dissolve all the solid Kool-aid (reweighing each time). Record all masses. 
 
13. When done, one of lab partners MUST drink the solution. 
 
 
Questions 
 
1. Did the mass change from before and after you dissolved the Kool-Aid solid the 1st time? 
 
 
2. What changed from before you added the Kool-Aid solid to the water until after? What observation help in explaining your answer? 
 
 
3. When you added more Kool-Aid solid, did that solid also do the same as the 1st mass of solid Kool-Aid? 
 
 
4. Was there or could there be at time where no more solid Kool-Aid could be added to the solution and have the same process happen to it as previous solids? 
 
 
 
 
5. If you tasted the Kool-Aid solution for each time you added the solid Kool-Aid, what observation would hypothesize who happen? Explain why it would happen.
