Solution
Composed of at least one solute and one solvent
Solvent
The substance in which a solute is dissolved in
Solute
A substance that is dissolved in a solvent (to form a solution)
Aqueous Solution
A solution in which the solvent is water
Alloy
A solution composed of metals
Miscible
Liquids that dissolve readily in each other in any proportion.
Immiscible
Liquids that do not dissolve readily in each other.
Solubility
The amount of solute that dissolves in a given quantity of solvent at a certain temperature.
Saturated Solution
When no more solute will dissolve in a solution and excess solute is present.
Unsaturated Solution
A solution which is not yet saturated; is able to dissolve more solute.
Precipitate
A solid formed from a reaction
High Solubility
The maximum solubility is greater than or equal to 0.1 mol/L (at SATP)
Low Solubility
The maximum solubility is less than 0.1 mol/L (at SATP)
Factors that affect rate of dissolving
Temperature
Agitation
Particle size
Soluble
