Q

What does solvent mean?

A

The substance that dissolves a solute to form a solution.
There is usually MORE solvent then solute in a solution.
e.x- the water is a solvent in a sugar-water solution

18
Q

What does dilute mean?

A

A solution that contains relatively little solute

19
Q

What does concentrated mean?

A

A solution that contains a lot if solute for the amount of solvent

20
Q

What is a saturated solution?

A

A solution in which no more solute will dissolve at a particular temperature

21
Q

What is a unsaturated solution?

A

A solution in which more of the solute could dissolve at the same temperature

22
Q

What is a supersaturated solution?

A

A solution that contains more solute then would normally dissolve at certain temperature

23
Q

What is solubility?

A

The limit to how concentrated a solution can become. The mass of a solute that can dissolve in a given amount of solvent to form a saturated solution at a given temperature

24
Q

What are the four factors that can affect solubility and rate (how fast) of dissolving?

A

Surface Area
Heat
Size of particle
Agitation
