WHMIS stands for Workplace Hazardous Material Information System
Slurry
the transfer of solids in water is called a slurry
Pneumatic system
it uses compress air to move things arounf with a press of a button
Hydrometer
It is a device used to measure the density of a liquid
Hydraulic System
A hydraulic system uses water/fluids that are under pressure to move things.
Hazard symbol
Warning symbols are on hazardous materials. the shapes are closed and they have symbols inside of them
fluid
a fluid is anything that flows and takes no shape of anything
solute

solubility
the abbility to dissolve
solution
mixture of two or more substances that look like one substance
slovent
substance that dissolves a solute to form a solution
suspension
cloudy mixture in which droplets or tiny peices of one substance are held in another substance
unsaturated solution
solution in which more sloute can be dissolved at a given temperature
saturation point
solution in which no more solute can be dissloved in a solvent at a given temperature
saturated solution
solution in which no more solute can be dissloved in a slovent at a given temperature
aqueous solution
solution in which water is in a solvent
particle model of matter
a model that explains the behaviour of solids, liquids, and gasses.
pure substance
a substance that is made up of only one type of matter
mechanical mixture
mixtures in which you can see the diffrent substances in the solution. Also known as a Herterogenous Mixture
Mixture
comobonation of two or more diffrent pure substances
Herterogenous mixture
mixture in which the diffrent substances can be seen
colloid
cloudy mixture in which the droplets or tiny particles are too small to seperate
concentration
the amout(usually in grams or kilograms) dissolved in a specific amount of solvent in a solution
Homogenous
Mixture in which diffrent substances cannot be seen
buoyant force
upward force that a fluid exerts on an object
compressibiltiy
