is a homogeneous
mixture of one or more
solutes dissolved in a
solvent.
Solution
● Where one substance is
dissolved into another.
● Uniform all throughout
which makes it homogenous
Solution
degree to which a substance dissolves
in a solvent to make a solution (usually
expressed as grams of solute per litre of solvent).
Solubility
Is when two liquids can be
mixed to form a solution
Miscible
Is when two liquids cannot
be mixed to form a solution
Immiscible
The substance that does the dissolving
Solute
Substance that is dissolved in a solution
Solute
● also known as the Tyndall phenomenon,
● is the scattering of a light beam by a
medium containing microscopic suspended
particles
Tyndall effect
comprises a large amount of solute
at a temperature wherein it will be
reduced, as a result the extra solute
will crystallize quickly.
Supersaturated Solution
is a solution in which a solvent is
capable of dissolving any more
solute at a given temperature.
Unsaturated Solution
can be defined as a solution in which a
solvent is not capable of dissolving
any more solute at a given
temperature.
Saturated Solution
When a solute is dissolved in water the
solution
Aqueous Solution
When a solute is dissolved in a solvent
other than water
Non-aqueous Solution
A solution containing a relatively large
amount of dissolved solute
Concentrated
A solution with a relatively small
amount of dissolved solute.
Dilute
is any external solution that has the same
solute concentration and water concentration
compared to body fluids.
Isotonic Solution
is any external solution that has a high
solute concentration and low water
concentration compared to body fluids.
Hypertonic Solution
is any external solution that has a high
solute concentration and low water
concentration compared to body fluids.
Hypertonic Solution
is any external solution that has a low solute
concentration and high water concentration
compared to body fluids.
Hypotonic Solution
