Front 1

composed of dissimilar components which are in an uneven arrangement

Back 1

Heterogeneous

Front 2

a combination of two or more substances that are not chemically combine

Back 2

Mixture

Front 3

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

Back 3

Suspension

Front 4

a mixture consisting of tiny particles that are intermediate in size than those in suspension but are still suspended in a liquid, solid, or gas

Back 4

Colloid

Front 5

a colloid in which liquids that normally do not mix are spread throughout each other

Back 5

Emulsion

Front 6

uniform mixtures. Components disperse evenly throughout

Back 6

Homogeneous Mixtures

Front 7

a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances uniformly dispersed throughout a single phase

Solution

Front 8

in a solution, the substance that dissolves in the solvent

Back 8

Solute

Front 9

the substance in which the solute dissolves

Back 9

Solvent

Nonpolar compounds

Front 13

the maximum amount of a solute that will dissolve in a given quantity of solvent at a given temperature and pressure

Back 13

Solubility

Front 14

the amount of a particular substance in a given quantity of a mixture, solution, or ore

Back 14

Concentration

Front 15

a solution that contains only a small amount of solute

Back 15

Dilute

Front 16

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

Back 16

Unsaturated solution

Front 17

a solution that cannot dissolve any more solute under the given conditions

Back 17

Saturated solution

Front 18

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