Solubility
These downloadable videos and animations are part of the multimedia package Stuff and Substance, developed by the Gatsby Science Enhancement Programme (SEP). They can be used to introduce the idea of solubility. Solubility is the amount of a substance that will dissolve in a certain amount of solvent.

Solutions
This progression toolkit develops understanding of the key concept of solutions, as part of a topic on substances and mixtures. This key concept helps to build broader understanding about substances and properties, which is one of the big ideas of science education at ages 11-14.
It includes diagnostic...
This item is one of over 25,000 physical resources available from the Resources Collection. The Archive Collection covers over 50 years of curriculum development in the STEM subjects. The Contemporary Collection includes all the latest publications from UK educational publishers.
Designed to help students grasp the main ideas in the different topics encountered in A-level physics courses, this text summarizes concepts, highlights uses and limitations, and shows how certain aspects of physics interrelate with other areas.
Chapters are broken down into sections, each containing a brief...
Solve friction problems
This resource is from a collection of Nuffield Maths resources exploring dynamics. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in GCE A level. The resources typically include slide shows to introduce the topics, student sheets and teacher notes, as well as other relevant resources.
In this activity the friction...
Solving a Quadratic Equation in Sin(x)
The mathematical solution explains how to solve the equation: 6 cos2x +7sinx = 8 for x between 0 and 4π radians. The equation is rearranged to make the equation 6 cos2x +7sinx - 8 = 0 then the identity sin2 x + cos...
Solving a Quadratic Inequality
The mathematical solution explains how to solve the quadratic inequality 3x[sup]2[/sup] – 10x ≥ 8 by forming, and finding the roots of, the quadratic equation 3x[sup]2[/sup] – 10x - 8 = 0. This equation is solved by factorisation. The curve y = 3x[sup]2[/sup] – 10x - 8 is then sketched and the regions of x for...
Solving Equations
Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), these resources are aimed at mathematics practitioners.
In this resource, sessions look at:
• Solving simple equations (encouraging reasoning rather than 'answer getting')
• Rearranging simple equations (encouraging reasoning...
Solving Equations Inquiry
This resource from Inquiry Maths contains a simple prompt which leads to a rich task exploring the nature of linear equations.
Solving equations inquiry and the Lesson notes outline the prompt for students to explore and suggests a number of supplementary enquiries. The...
