| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| solution | mixture that has the same composition color, density and taste throughout |
| solute | substance being dissolved |
| solvent | substance doing the dissolving |
| increase in temperature | this speeds up particles causing them to bump into each other; breaking apart and coming in contact with solvent |
| stirring | brings more solvent in contact with solute |
| increase surface area | by breaking up a solid for instance by crushing it into into powder allows more solvent to come in contact with solute |
| solubility | maximum of solute that can be dissolved in a given amount of solvent at a given temperature |
| concentration | percent by volume of a solute in a solvent |
| concentration | large amount of solute in solvent |
| diture | small amount of solute in solvent |
| saturated | contains all the solvent it can hold at a given temperature |
| unsaturated | able to dissolve more solvent at given temperature |
| supersaturated | contains more solute than a saturated one solution is unstable |
