Front 1

A mixture in which particles of a material are more or less evenly dispersed throughout a liquid or gas.

Back 1

Suspension

Front 2

A mixture consisting of tiny particles that are intermediate in size between those in solutions and those in suspensions and that are suspended in a liquid, solid, or gas.

Back 2

Colloid

Front 3

A homogenous mixture of 2 or more substances uniformly dispersed throughout a single phase.

Back 3

Solution

Front 4

A covalent bond in which a pair of electrons shared by two atoms is held more closely by 1 atom.

Back 4

Polar Bond

Front 5

A covalent bond in which the bonding electrons are equally attracted to both bonded atoms.

Back 5

Nonpolar Bond

Front 6

A solution that cannot dissolve any more solute under the given conditions.

Back 6

Saturated Solution

Front 7

A solution that contains less solute than a saturated solution does and that is able to dissolve additional solute.

Back 7

Unsaturated Solution

Front 8

A solution that holds more dissolved solute than is required to reach equilibrium at a given temperature.

Back 8

Supersaturated Solution

Front 9

A liquid or solid substance or mixture that does not allow an electric current.

Back 9

Nonelectrolyte

Front 10

A substance that dissolves in water to give a solution that conducts an electric current.
