Solubility rules were discussed, including the definitions of solute and solvent. Standardization of comparable solubilities as well as the words "saturated", "unsaturated", and "supersaturated" were covered.
Examples of temperature affecting solubility included sweet tea served in "yankee" territory, gargling with salt water, and how rock candy is made from supersaturated solutions of sugar.

Here's the solubility curve:
