- Solution Equilibrium
- the physical state in which the opposing processes of dissolution and crystallization of a solute occur at equal rates
- saturated solution
- solution that contains maximum amount of dissolved solute
- unsaturated solution
- solution that contains less solute than a saturated solution under conditions
- supersaturated solution
- solution that contains more dissolved solute than a saturated solution contains
- solubility
- the amount of that substance required to form a saturated solution with a specific amount of solvent at a specfic temp.
- hydration
- solution process with water as the solvent
