solvation
the process by which the positive and negative ions of an ionic compound become surrounded by solvent molecules
suspension
a mixture from which particles set out upon standing
Hetergeneous
not uniform in composition
Miscible
If 2 liquids dissolve each other in all proportions
Super saturated solution
a solution that contains more solute than it can theoretically hold at a given temperature
Homogeneous
uniform in composition
Immiscible
liquids that are insoluble in each other
Solubility
the amount that dissolves in a given quantity of a solvent at a specified temperature and pressure to produce a saturated solution
Unsaturated Solution
A solution that contains less solute than a saturated solution at a given temperature and pressure
Concentrated Solution
a solution that contains a large amount of solute
Colloid
a heterogeneous mixture containing particles that range in size from 1nm-100nm
Solvent
the dissolving medium in a solution
Solute
the dissolved particles in a solution
Molarity
the number of moles of solute dissolved in one liter of solution
Dilute Solution
a solution that contains a small amount of solute
