Karteikarten: Solutions and Colligative Properties — 9 Karten

Solutions — types?

Homogeneous mixtures of substances, classified as saturated or unsaturated.

Solution — definition?

Homogeneous mixture of substances, uniformly distributed.

Concentration terms — example?

Molarity measures moles of solute per liter of solution.

Solvent — role?

The component present in the largest amount.

Solute — role?

Substance dissolved in the solvent.

Saturated solution — definition?

Contains maximum dissolvable solute at specific temperature.

Unsaturated solution — definition?

Contains less than maximum solute; can dissolve more.
