Detailed explanation-4: -The dissolving of the Kool-Aid powder into water is a physical change. The powder, the solute, is dissolved in water, the solute, forming a Kool-Aid solution.

Detailed explanation-5: -Kool-Aid is mostly sugar, which is heavier than water, so when you pour it in it sinks to the bottom. When you stir it up the sugar (and flavoring) dissolves so that you don’t have any solid particles any more. Stuff that is dissolved in water will not sink because it is no longer a physically separate thing.
