HS-PS1-10: Solutions

Use evidence to support claims regarding the formation, properties and behaviors of solutions at bulk scales.

Clarification Statement: Examples of physical properties could include colligative properties, degree of saturation, physical behavior of solutions, solvation process and conductivity. Examples of solution types could include solid-liquid, liquid-liquid, and gas-liquid solutions. Concentrations can be quantitatively expressed in ppm, molarity, and percent by mass

Assessment Boundary: Assessment of colligative properties is limited to qualitative statements of boiling point elevation and freezing point depression.
