Solution
Homogenous mixture of two or more kinds of different molecular or ionic substances.
Phase
Every sample of matter with uniform properties and a fixed composition.
Solvent
Present in large quantity
Solute
Present in small quantity
Percentage weight/weight
It is the weight of a solute dissolved per 100 parts by weight solution.
Weight percentage of solute in solvent.
Percentage weight/volume
It is the weight of solute dissolved per 100 parts of volume of solution
Percentage volume/weight
It is the number of cm^3 of a solute dissolved per 100g of the solution
Percentage volume/volume
It is the volume of a solute dissolved per 100cm^3 of the solution
Molarity
It is the number of moles of solute dissolved per dm^3 of the solution
Morality
It is the number of moles of solute per 1kg of the solvent
Mole fraction
Ratio of number of moles of one component to the total number of moles of all components
Parts per million (ppm)
It is defined as the number of parts (by weight or volume) of a solute per million parts (by weight or volume) of the solution
Conjugate solutions
Each liquid layer is a saturated solution of the other liquid
Critical solution temperature or Hoover consulate temperature
He temperature of 65.9 degree Celsius at which two conjugate solutions merge into one another
Raoults law
The vapor pressure of a solvent above a solution is equal to the product of the vapor pressure of pure solvent and mole fraction of solvent in solution.
The lowering of vapor pressure is directly proportional to the mole fraction of solute
Ideal solution
That solution which obeys Raoults law
Zeotropic mixtures
Those mixtures which distill with a change in composition
Azeotropic mixtures
Those mixtures which boil at constant temperature and distill over without change in composition at any temperature like a pure chemical compound.
Solubility
Concentration of the solute in the solution when it is in equilibrium with the solid substance at a particular temperature
Freezing point
The temperature at which its solids and liquids have the same vapor pressures
Heat of solution
The amount of heat absorbed or released when a substance forms a solution (one mole of a substance is dissolved in a specific number of moles of solvent at given temperature)
Hydration
The process in which water molecules surround and interact with solute ions or molecules is called hydration.
Hydrate
Crystalline substances which contain chemically combined water in definite proportions
Water of crystallization/hydration
Those water molecules which combine with substances as they are crystallized from aqueous solutions
