saturated solution
|
Any solution that contains all the solute it can hold at a given temperature.673
|
|
unsaturated solution
|
Any solution that can dissolve more solute at a given temperature. 673
|
|
supersatuated solution
|
Any solution that contains more solute than a saturated solution at the same temperature. 674
|
|
ion
|
A charged particle that has either more or fewer electrons than protons. 676
|
|
electrolyte
|
A compound that breaks apart in water, forming charged particles (ions) that can conduct electricity.676
|
|
nonelectrolyte
|
A substance that does NOT ionize in water and CANNOT conduct electricity. 676
|
|
ionization
|
The process in which electrolytes dissolve in water and separate into charged particles. 676
|
|
dissociation
|
The process in which an ionic compound separates into its positive and neagative ions. 677
|
|
nonpolar
|
NOT having sepatated positive and nagative areas; nonpolar materials do NOT attract water molecules and do NOT dissolve easily in water. 681
|
|
hydrocarbon
|
Saturated OR unsaturated compound that contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms.
|
|
concentration
|
How much solute is present in a solution compared to the amount of solvent.
|
|
alloy
|
A mixture of elements that has metallic properties.
|
|
conductivity
|
Property of metals and alloys that allows them to be good conductors of heat and electricity.
|
|
NON-Liquid solutions
|
Solutions can also be gaseous or even solid. EX- The air you breathe is a solution. Brass is a solution of copper and zinc. Solid solutions are ALLOYS.
|
|
solution
|
Homogeneous mixture that remains constantly and uniformly mixed and has particles that are so small they cnnot be seen with a microscope. 664
|
|
solute
|
In a solution, the substance being dissolved. 665
|
|
solvent
|
In a solution, the substance in which the solute is dissolved. 665
|
|
polar
|
Having separated positive and negative areas; polar materials attract water molecules and dissolve easily in water. 667
|
|
solubility
|
Maximum amount of a solute that can be disolved in a given amount of solvent at a given temperature. 671
