Solvent
The thing that the solute is dissolved in
How do ionic compounds dissolve in water
They split into ions
How do covalent compounds dissolve in water
One molecule at a time
Dose the solvent make a difference in determining the solubility
Yes
What is a saturated solution
A solution that cannot dissolve any more of the solute in the solvent
This can change if the temperature and/or pressure changes
What is precipitation
When the solute comes out of the solvent
What conditions make solids dissolve better
High temperature
What kind of conditions make gases dissolve better
Low temperature and high pressure
If a solution dissolvers endothermically would it be hot or cold
Cold
If a solution dissolves exothermically would it be hot or cold
Hot
What is molality
Moles per Kg
What is molarity
Moles per L
