Acids, Bases And Solutions

Front 1

Solution

Back 1

Well-mixed mixture that contains a solvent and at least 1 solute

Front 2

Solvent

Back 2

The part of the solution present in the largest amount - it dissolves the other substances

Front 3

Solute

Back 3

The substance that is present in a solution in a smaller amount - it is being dissolved

Front 4

Colloid

Back 4

Mixture containing small, undissolved particles that do not settle out

Front 5

Suspension

Back 5

Mixture in which particles can be seen and easily separated by settling or filtration

Front 6

Dilute Solution

Back 6

Mixture that has only a little solute dissolved in a certain amount of solvent

Front 7

Concentrated Solution

Back 7

Mixture that has a lot of solute dissolved in it

Front 8

Solubility

Back 8

Measure of how much solute can dissolve in a solvent at a given temperature

Front 9

Saturated Solution

Back 9

Solution with so much solute that no more will dissolve

Front 10

Unsaturated Solution

Back 10

Solution in which more solute can be dissolved

Front 11

Supersaturated Solution

Back 11

Solution that has more solute dissolved that was predicted by its solubility at the given temperature

Front 12

Acid

Back 12

Substance that tastes sour, reacts with metals and carbonates and turns blue litmus paper red

Front 13

Base

Back 13

Substance that tastes bitter, feels slippery and turns red litmus paper blue

Front 14

Corrosive

Back 14

The way in which acids react with some metals so as to each away the metal

Front 15

Indicator

Back 15

Compound that changes color in the presence of an acid or a base

Front 16

Hydrogen Ion (H+)

Back 16

An atom of hydrogen that has lost its electron

Front 17

Hydroxide Ion (OH-)

Back 17

A negative ion made of Oxygen and Hydrogen

Front 18

pH Scale

Back 18

Range of values from 0 to 14 expressing the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution

Front 19

Neutralization

Back 19

Reaction between an acid and a base

Front 20

Salt

Back 20

Any ionic compound that can be made from the neutralization of an acid with a base

Front 21

Digestion

Back 21

Process breaking down the complex molecules of food into smaller molecules

Front 22

Mechanical Digestion

Back 22

A physical process in which large pieces of food are torn and ground into smaller pieces

Front 23

Chemical Digestion

Back 23

Process breaking down large molecules into smaller ones
