Q

Saturated solution

A

a solution containing the maximum amount of solute for a given amount of solvent at a constant temperature and pressure; an equilibrium exists between undissolved solute and ions in solution

the amount of a substance that dissolves in a given quantity of solvent at specified conditions of temperature and pressure to produce a saturated solution

18
Q

Solution

A

a homogeneous mixture; consists of solutes dissolved in a solvent
