| A | B |
| saturated solution | a solution containing the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved at a given temperature |
| colligative properties | depend upon the number of particles of solute in solution |
| miscible | describes liquids that dissolve in each other |
| molarity (M) | the number of moles of solute dissolved in 1 L of solution |
| unsaturated solution | contains less solute than can theoretically be dissolved |
| immiscible | describes liquids that are insoluble in each other |
| concentrated solution | a solution with a large amount of solute compared to solvent |
| Henry's law | At a given temperature, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas above the liquid |
| supersaturated solution | contains more solute than can theoretically be held at a given temperature |
| dilute solution | contains only a small amount of the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved at a given temperature |
| concentration | a measure of the amount of solute that is dissolved in a given quantity of solvent |
| boiling-point elevation | the difference in temperature between the boiling point of a solution and the boiling point of the pure solvent |
| freezing-point depression | the difference in temperature between the freezing point of a solution and the freezing point of the pure solvent |
| molal freezing-point depression constant | equals the change in freezing point for a 1-molal solution of a nonvolatile molecular solute |
| molal boiling-point elevation constant | equals the change in boiling point for a 1-molal solution of a nonvolatile molecular solute |
| molality (m) | number of moles of solute dissolved in 1 kilogram of solvent |
| mole fraction of a solute | is the ratio of moles of the solute to the total number of moles of solvent and solute in a solution |
| solubility | the amount of solute that dissolves in a given quantity of solvent at a constant temperatue and pressure |
