Term
Solute the minor component in a solution, dissolved in the solvent.
Definition
Term
Solvent a substance in which another substance is dissolved; major component of a solution
Definition
Term
Solution Homogeneous mixture of two of more pure substances.
Definition
Term
Dissociation Breaking down of a molecule in to two or more units.
Definition
Term
Dispersion Distributing the solute particles evenly in the solvent to make a solution.
Definition
Term
Ionization A process by which an atom acquires a positive or negative charge; water causes this to most ionic substances.
Definition
Term
Solubility the ability of a solute to be dissolved, especially in water.
Definition
Term
Solubilitycurve A graph showing how much of a solute dissolves in a given solvent at a given temperature.
Definition
Term
Saturatedsolution a chemical solution containing the maximum concentration of a solute dissolved in the solvent. ?The additional solute will not dissolve in a saturated solution.
Definition
Term
Unsaturatedsolution a chemical solution in which the solute concentration is lower than its equilibrium solubility; more solute can be added to this solution.
Definition
Term
Supersaturatedsolution a solution that contains more than the maximum amount of solute that is capable of being dissolved at a given temperature; solute immidiately crystalizes from this solution upon cooling.
Definition
Term
Concentration Amount of solute in a given amont of solution
Definition
Term
Molarity the concentration of a solution expressed as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution:

Term
Electrolyte A substance that consists of ions and conducts electricity in water.
Definition
Term
Non-Electrolyte A substance that disssolves in water but doesn
Definition
Term
Alloy a homogeneous solution of two or more metals

Term
Aqueous solution A solution in which water is the solvent
Definition
Term
Soluble Can be dissolved by a particular solvent
Definition
Term
Insoluble Cannot be dissolved by a particular solvent
Definition
Term
Solvation The process of dissolving in which solvent particles surround and pull apart solute particles, distributing them evenly throughout the solution; happens at the surface of a solute and results from random molecular motion
