| Capillary Action | The movement of a liquid in a thin tube due to the difference in pressure inside and outside the tube. |
| Chromatography | Various combinations of color pigments are used to produce different colors of paints and inks. Chemists use a method called chromatography to separate materials into theor basic colors. |
| Diffusion | The movement of the molecules from one place to another, resulting in an even distribution of molecule particles. |
| Solubility | The amount of a solute that can dissolve in a given solvent under a given set of conditions. |
| Soluble | Describes a substance that can be dissolved in a solvent. |
| Solution | A mixture that is dormed when one kind of molecule (solute) fills the spaces between other kinds of molecules (solvent). |
| Solvent | The part of the solution that does the dissolving. |
| Solute | The part of the solution that dissolves. |
| Cohesion | Physics - the force by which molecules of a substance are held together. (throughout) |
| Adhesion | Physics - the force that holds together the molecules of unlike substances whose surfaces are in contact. (surface) |
| Van der Waals Forces | Names after a Ddutch physicist - it is a weal attractive force between electrically neutral atoms and molecules. |
| Surface Tension | A property of liquids in which the exposed surface tends to contract to the smallest possible are because of the unequal molecular cohesive forces near the surface. |
