Reversible Changes
Grade 6 – Science Cambridge

Learning Objective
Identify and describe physical changes that are reversible.
Describe how temperature affects solids dissolving in liquids and relate
it to the particle model.

Words of the days
01 02
Solute Solvent
The solid in solution. The liquid in a solution.
03
Reversible
Can be changed back to
the way it was before
Everyday we see different
types of changes around us.
Changes means the act which
brings difference in the form
of the material of thing.
These are the examples
of Changes around us.
It belongs to Reversible changes. The change can be changed back to what
it was before.
It be Irreversible
changes. The chang
e cannot be
undoned back to
what it was before.
For the change of candle. It bel
ongs to two types of changes:
Reversible
and Irreversible changes.
The burning of candle is an
irreversible as the burnt can
dle thread cannot be obtain
ed. While the melting of the
wax is a reversible change
as the shape of the wax can
be obtained by heating it.
So, we can conclude that changes are classified
into:
Reversible changes: is a change that can be undone or reversed.
Irreversible changes: the change can not be reversed.

DISSOLVING
From the observation in the opening, we notice:
Salt dissolves
Salt is in water
solid
Salt
Salt is
soluble
substance
Salt is Solute. Water is Solvent.

Seawater is a solution.
However, you can’t see
the salt inside, but the
particles are there.
The particles of the
solute move between
the solvent particles
when they dissolve.
So, we can say that:
Soluble: substances that dissolve in liquids.
Solution: the dissolving substance.

(we can not see the substance)
Solute: The material that is dissolved.
Solvent: The liquid in which a solute

dissolves
Solution: the dissolving substance.
(we can not see the substance)
Solute: The material that is dissolved.
Solvent: The liquid in which a solute
dissolves
“A solution is made up of a
solute dissolved in a solvent”.
— Cambridge’s literature -
Can we make solids dissolve
faster?
Why do you think the coffee
did not taste sweet?
How could Marcus make the coffee
taste sweeter without adding any
more sugar?
Thermal Conductors
Substances and materials that

conduct heat well.
Based on the video....
• If we are making tea, we need to dissolve the

sugar as fast as possible.
• To do that, we stir the tea.
• Because of this, the sugar particles spread out
through the tea so it will be dissolved really
fast.
STIRRING
If we stir some salt in water, the salt will be

dissolved faster when it is stirred.
Factors that affect dissolving:
1. The liquids temperature in the solution.
The heat speeds up the particle and allows the

solute spread through the solution more easily
What is conductor?
 If we dissolve some sugar in hot water,
the sugar will be dissolved faster.
 If the temperature is low,

the sugar will be dissolved slowly.
Factors that affect dissolving:
2. The grain size of the particles
 If the grain size of the particles are bigger, it will take time to
dissolve. But if the particles is smaller, it will be
dissolved faster.
For example, if we take
sugar and dissolve it in
normal water,
it will take a little time to
dissolve since its grain
size is a little bit bigger.
BUT.......!
If we take ICING SUGAR,

it will dissolve faster
than sugar because the
grain size is smaller.
Review and Checking
 The factors which affect dissolving:

1). Stirring : stirring causes the particles of solute spread out through the solvent so it will be
dissolved really fast.
2) The liquids temperature in the solution : the heat speeds up the particle and allows the solute
spread through the solution more easily
example : if we dissolved some sugar in hot water, the sugar will dissolved faster.
3). The grain size : If the grain size of the particles are bigger. it will take time to dissolve. But if the
particles is smaller, it will be dissolved faster.
For example, if we take sugar and dissolve it in normal tap water, it will take a little time to
dissolve since its grain size is a little bit bigger . But, if we take icing sugar, it will dissolve faster
than sugar because the grain size is smaller.
