    Study Notes

    Liquid Solutions

    • Comprise a liquid solvent along with either a gas, liquid, or solid dissolved within it.

    Solution

    • Defined as a homogeneous mixture consisting of elements or compounds.

    Solvation

    • Refers to the process of forming a solution by dissolving a solute into a solid.

    Solvent

    • The substance responsible for the dissolving action within a solution.

    Solute

    • The material that is being dissolved in a solvent to form a solution.

    Miscible

    • Term for liquids that are capable of dissolving in one another without separation.

    Immiscible

    • Describes liquids that do not dissolve in one another, maintaining separate phases.

    Solid Solutions

    • Mixtures where solids are uniformly distributed at the atomic or molecular level.

    Gas Solutions

    • Form when two or more gases dissolve in each other, resulting in a homogeneous mixture due to the constant, random motion of gas molecules which promotes equal distribution over time.

    Solubility

    • Indicates the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a specific quantity of solvent or solution at a certain temperature.

    Saturated Solution

    • A type of solution that contains the maximum amount of solute possible for a given temperature.

    Solution Equilibrium

    • Occurs when saturated solutions are in a state where the dissolution and crystallization processes balance each other.

    Supersaturated

    • Refers to solutions that hold more solute than what is typically possible in a saturated solution, achieved under special conditions.
