Q

what is a solvent

A

the liquid in which the solute is dissolving in

17
Q

what is a solution

A

when the solute dissolves in the solvent a solution is formed

18
Q

saturated solution =

A

occurs when no more solute can dissolve in the solvent

19
Q

crystal flaw =

A

when there is something wrong with the crystal

20
Q

what is a compound

A

a compound is a molecule that is made up of two or more different atoms

21
Q

seed crystal =

A

tiny crystal

22
Q

faces of crystals =

A

the flat surfaces of a crystal

23
Q

what is plasma

A

plasma is a superheated gas with a very high energy

24
Q

how do you store plasma

A

you stare plasma surrounded by a magnetic field in a magnetic container

25
Q

what does heat increase in particles

A

kinetic energy

26
Q

kinetic energy =

A

movement

27
Q

melting point of pure water

A

0 degrees

28
Q

boiling point of pure water

A

100 degrees

29
Q

how do copper sulphate crystals grow

A

the copper sulphate solution is water with particles of copper sulphate in the spaces between the water particles. as the water evaporates there are fewer spaces and the particles arrange themselves on the crystal. this results in the crystal growing.
