Solutions and Solubility Curve Flashcards
What is a solute
The solute is what is being dissloved
What is a solution
A solution is a type of mixture
What is a solvent
A solvent is what the solute is dissolved in
What is a solution ?
A solution is a mixture with a solvent and solute.
What is a dilute solution
A dilute solution has more solvent and less solute.
What is a concentrated solution
A concentrated solution has more solute and less solvent.
What is a saturated solution
A saturated solution is the amount of solute that can dissolve in a solvent at a given temperature
What is a solubility curve
A solubility curve shows how the solubility of a substance changes with increasing temperature.
•the hotter the solvent the more solute can be dissolved.
What is crystallisation
The forming of crystal when a hot saturated solution is called and liquid evaporates
