| A | B |
| solute | The substance that is dissolved to form a solution |
| solvent | The substance in which a solute is dossolved to form a solution |
| solubility | The ability to dissolve in another substance |
| concentration | a measure of the amount of solute dissolved in a solvent |
| colloid | a mixture in which |
| solution | A mixture that appears to be a single substance but is composed of particles of two or more substances that are distributed evenly amongst each other. |
| saturated | A solution that contains all of the solute that it can hold at a specific temperature. |
| suspension | A mixture in which particles of a material are dispersed throughout a liquid or gas but are large enough that they settle out. |
| graphing | temperature on the x-axis, solubility on the y-axis |
| dependent variable | The solubility is the dependent variable because it depends on many factors, including temperature. |
| independent variable | The temperature is the independent variable because it does NOT change based on the solubility of a substance. |
