🗑
Solution   A homogenous mixture of two or more substances  
🗑
Semipermeable membrane   allows solvent molecules such as water and very small solute particles to pass through.  
🗑
Suspensions   Contain very large size solute particles. These particles can be seen without a microscope making it heterogeneous.  
🗑
Osmosis   Passage of solvent through a semipermeable membrane.  
🗑
Dialysis   Passage of small particles as well as water through a semipermeable membrane.  
🗑

🗑
Acid   A substance that ionizes and produces H+ ion when dissolved in water.  
🗑
Base   A substance that produces OH- when dissolved in water or an H+ acceptor.  
🗑
Ammonia shown as a base   A water molecule has to be included as a reactant.  
🗑
Buffer   A solution that will resist changes in pH when small amounts of acid or base are added.  
🗑
Buffer systems   Comprised of a weak base and the salt of a weak base.  
🗑
Example of weak acetic acid   HC2H3O2 (acetate) --> acetic acid  
🗑
Three common buffers that regulate the human body   carbonate system, phosphate system and the protein system  
🗑
Blue   base  
🗑
Red   acid  
🗑
Solute concentration   Amount of solute dissolved in a certain amount of solvent or solution.  
🗑
Molarity   Number of moles of solute per liter of solution and is given the symbol M.  
🗑
Molar mass    
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
