🗑
Saturated   the most concentrated solution possible at a given temperature  
🗑
Unsaturated   capable of dissolving more of a substance at a given temperature  
🗑
Supersaturated   a solution that contains more dissolved solute than a saturated solution contains under the same conditions  
🗑
Distillation   a method of separating mixtures based on differences in their volatilities  
🗑
Filtering   a porous material through which a liquid or gas is passed in order to separate the fluid from a suspended particulate matter  
🗑
Chromatography   a process used for separating mixtures by virtue of differences in absorbency  
🗑
Solubility   the amount of a substance required to form a saturated solution with a specific amount of solvent at a specified temperature  
🗑
Mixture   a blend of two or more kinds of matter, each of which retains its own identity and properties  
🗑
Homogeneous   having a uniform composition throughout  
🗑
Heterogeneous   not having a uniform composition throughout  
🗑
Suspension   a mixture in which the particles in the solvent are so large that they settle out unless the mixture is constantly stirred or agitated  
🗑
Colloid   a mixture consisting of particles that are intermediate in size between those in solutions and suspensions forming mixtures known as colloid dispersions  
🗑
Dissociation   the separation of ions that occurs when an ionic compound dissolves  
🗑
Electrolyte   a substance that dissolves in water to give a solution that conducts electric energy  
🗑
Nonelectrolyte   a substance that dissolves in water to give a solution that does not conduct an electric current  
🗑
Precipitate   a solid that is produced as a result of a chemical reaction in colution and that separates from the solution  
🗑
Ionic equation   an equation that represents all reactants an products that break down into ions in water as their ions

🗑
Acid   chemical compound that, when dissolved in water, gives a solution with a hydrogen ion activity greater than in pure water  
🗑
Base   a chemical species that donates electrons or hydroxide ions or that accepts protons  
🗑
Neutralization   the reaction of hydronium ions and hydroxide ions to form water molecules  
🗑
Oxidation   a reaction in which the atoms or ions of an element experience an increase in oxidation state  
🗑
Reduction   a reaction in which the oxidation state of an element decreases  
🗑
Molarity   the number of moles of solute in one liter of solution  
🗑
Molality   the concentration of a solution expressed in moles of solute per kilogram of solvent  
🗑
Dilution   a diluted substance; the process of making  
🗑
Titration   a measured amount of a solution of unknown concentration is added to a known volume of a second solution until the reaction between them is just complete  
🗑
Concentration   measure of how much of a given substance there is mixed with another substance  
🗑
