| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Solution (Soln) | made up of solvent and a solute |
| Solute | always the smallest part of a solution |
| Solvent | always the largest part of the solution |
| Hypertonic | the solution with the highest percentage of solute |
| Hypotonic | the solution with the lowest percentage of solute |
| Isotonic | when two solutions have the same level of solute |
| Permeable | solute and solvent can move through it |
| Semi permeable | only one thing can move through it, either solvent or solute, but not both |
| Impermeable | neither solute or solvent can move through it |
| Universal Solvent | always water |
| Diffusion is faster with: | A. Smaller molecular size B. Higher temperature C. Greater concentration |
| osmosis | the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane |
| Brownian motion | randomly moving water molecules |
