- Mixture
- A combination of two or more substances in which each substance retains its properties
- Solubility
- the ability (amount) of a solute to dissolve in a solvent
- Saturated Solution
- no more solute can dissolve
- Unsaturated solution
- has not reached the limit of solute
- Solution
- Homogeneous mixture in which all of the components are in the same phase
- Solute
- The substance being dissolved and evenly distributed among the molecules of the solvent (minor component)
- Homogeneous
- Mixture w/ the same composition of elements and/or compounds throughout
- Element
- pure substances made of only one type of atom
- Dilute
- a solution containing relatively small amounts of solute
- Molarity
- a unit of concentration expressed as the moles of solute per liter of solution
- Heterogeneous
- Consists of visibly different substances or phases of matter
- Chemical Formula
