Solution Components and Properties
- Solute: The smaller component in a solution that dissolves.
- Solvent: The liquid in which the solute dissolves.
- Concentration: The ratio of solute to solvent.
- Dilute solution: Contains a small amount of solute compared to the solvent.
- Concentrated solution: Contains a high amount of solute.
Density and Buoyancy
- Density: Mass per unit volume.
- Equal volumes: Essential for accurate comparison of solutions.
- Layers: One substance placed on top of another.
- Float: Objects less dense than the liquid.
