|
solute |
a substance whose particles are dissolved into a solution; the lesser quantity |
|
|
solvent |
a substance in which a solute dissolves; the greater quantity |
|
|
dissociation |
the separation of ions in an ionic compound as the compound dissolves |
|
|
dispersion |
the process of dissolving by breaking into smaller pieces |
|
|
ionization |
the process by which neutral molecules gain or lose electrons |
|
|
solubility |
the maximum amount of solute that normally dissolves in a given amount of solvent at a certain temperature |
