Mixtures and Solutions

In Science, students are discovering that different substances dissolve at different rates.  In groups, the students have learned about how to create saturated solutions.  In order to create a saturated solution, salt was stirred into water until no more of it would dissolve.  It took about 25 grams of salt to saturate 50 ml of water.  Today, students used granulated citric acid to see how many grams it would take to saturate the same amount of water. 

Would it be the same amount as salt? 

Ask your child to tell you the results.
