| saturated solution | a solution containing the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved at a given temperature |
| unsaturated solution | contains less solute than can theoretically be dissolved |
| concentrated solution | a solution with a large amount of solute compared to solvent |
| 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 |
| solubility | the amount of solute that dissolves in a given quantity of solvent at a constant temperatue and pressure |
| solute | the substance that is dissolved |
| solvent | The primary ingrediant in a solution |
| suspension | mixtures in which the solute settles out |
| solution | A homogenous mixture |
