Aqueous Solution
a mixture where its components are evenly distributed throughout
homogenous mixture
a substance dissolved in solution
solute
the part of the solution in which the solute is dissolved, and is present in the greatest amount
solvent
to separate into individual particles which mix and distribute throughout the solution
dissolve
the universal solvent
water
describes how much solute is dissolved in the solvent
concentration
a ration of the amount of solute compared to the amount of solvent or the total solution
concentration
this solution has less solute per unit volume
low concentration
this solution has more solute per unit volume
high concentration
when a solvent can no longer dissolve any more of a solute
saturation
a solutions contains less solute than it can dissolve
unsaturated
a solution contains as much solute as it can dissolve
saturated
solutions with very low concentration are
diluted
the process of reducing the concentration of a solute by increasing the amount of solvent
dilution
