The bar graphs you just created show how much each bottle of regular lemonade and each bottle of low-sugar lemonade weighs. Using the bar graphs you made, answer each statement by circling True or False for each one. True: When sugar dissolves in lemon juice, it disappears. Sugar does not add weight to the lemonade. Mai can put the same number of bottles of regular lemonade and low-sugar lemonade in each truck because their weight is equal. False: When sugar dissolves in lemon juice, it seems to disappear, but it is still there. Sugar adds weight to the lemonade. Therefore, Mai will have to put fewer bottles of regular lemonade in each truck than bottles of low-sugar lemonade because regular lemonade weighs more. True: When sugar dissolves in lemon juice, it seems to disappear, but it is still there. You know that the sugar is there because the lemonade tastes sweet. But the weight of the lemonade does NOT change based on how much sugar you put in the lemon juice.
