| Colloid | A mixture consisting of particles that are intermediate in size |
| Concentration | A measure of the amount of solute in a given amount of solvent or solution |
| Effervescence | The rapid escape of a gas from the liquid in which it is dissolved |
| Electrolyte | A substance that dissolves in water to give a solution that conducts electric current |
| Heat of solution | The net amount of energy absorbed or released as heat when a specific amount of solute dissolves in a solvent |
| Henry’s law | The solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas on the surface of the liquid |
| Hydration | A solution process with water as the solvent |
| Immiscible | Liquid solutes and solvents that are not soluble in each other |
| Miscible | Liquid solutes and solvents that are able to dissolve freely in one another |
| Molality | The concentration of a solution expressed in moles of solute per kilogram of solvent |
| Molarity | The number of moles of solute in one liter of solution |
| Nonelectrolyte | A substance that dissolves in water to give a solution that does not conduct an electric current |
| Saturated | A solution that contains the maximum amount of dissolved solute |
| Solubility | The amount of a substance required to form a saturated solution with a specific amount of solvent at a specified temperature |
| Soluble | Capable of being dissolved |
| Solute | The substance dissolved in a solution |
| Solution | A homogenous mixture of two or more substances in a single phase |
| Solution equilibrium | The physical state in which the opposing processes of dissolution and crystallization of a solute occur at equal rates |
| Solvated | A solute particle that is surrounded by solvent molecules |
| Solvent | The dissolving medium in a solution |
| Supersaturated | A solution that contains more dissolved solute than a saturated solution contains under the same conditions |
| Unsaturated | A solution that contains the minimum amount of dissolved solute |
| Dilute | dissovled material |
| Aqueous | Substance mixed with water |
| Evaporation | Process of particles escaping from the surface of a liquid |
| Condensation | The process of a gas changing to a liquid |
| Sublimation | THe change of a solid to a gas |
| Freezing point | Solid and liquid are at 1 atm |
| Boiling point | The point at which pressure of a liquid is the same as the atmosphere |
| Suspension | A mixture in which the particles in a solvent are so large that they settle out unless the mixture is constantly stirred or agitated |
