Solute
Any substance dissolved in the solvent
Solvent
The component present in the largest amount
Dissociate
When soluble ionic compounds separate into individual ions when dissolved in water
Strong electrolyte
Dissociates completely (Strong acids and bases)
Weak electrolyte
Dissociates partially, poor conductor. Weak acids and weak bases (a few ionic compounds)
Nonelectrolyte
Does not dissociate. Most molecular compounds. (Most organic compounds).
Molarity
Moles of solute/Liters of solution
