| Suspension | Heterogeneous mixture with large particles that eventually settle out. |
| Colloid | Heterogeneous mixter with very tiny particles that stay suspended. |
| Emulsion | Any mixture of immiscible liquids in which the liquids are spread throughout one another. |
| Solution | Homogeneous mixture of two or more substances uniformly spread throughout a single phase. |
| Solute | The substance that dissolves in solution. |
| Solvent | The substance that dissolves the solute to make a solution. |
| Concentration | The quantity of solute dissolved in a given quantity of solution. |
| Unsaturated solution | A solution that is able to dissolve more solute. |
| Saturated solution | A solution that cannot dissolve any more solute at the given conditions. |
| Solubility | The greatest quantity of a solute that will dissolve in a given quantity of solvent to produce a saturated solution. |
| Supersaturated solution | A solution holding more dissolved solute than is specified by its solubility at a given temperature. |
| Molarity | A concentration unit of a solution that expresses moles of solute dissolved per liter of solution. |
| Acid | A substance that donates protons to form hydronium ions when dissolved in water. |
| Base | A substance that either contains hydroxide ions or reacts with water to form hydroxide ions (a proton acceptor). |
| Acid / base indicator | A compound that can reversibly change color in a solution, depending on the concentration of hydronium ions. |
| pH | A measure of the hydronium ion concentration in a solution. |
| Neutralization reaction | A reaction in which an acid and a base react to form a salt and water. |
