| A | B |
| mixture | combination of substances that can be seperated by physical means and can be either heterogeneous or homogenous |
| solution | homogenous mixture made up of two or more substances where one substance seems to disappear into the other |
| solute | the substance that dissolves into another substance |
| solvent | the substance that dissolves the solute |
| aqueous | a solution in which the solvent is water |
| solubility | maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a given amount of solvent |
| saturated | solution that contains the total amout of solute that it can hold under specific conditions |
| concentration | measure of the amount of solute in a solution compared to the amount of solvent |
| concentrated | solution that contains a large amount of solute per given amount of solvent |
| dilute | solution that contains a small amount of solute per given amount of solvent |
| acid | substance that contains hydrogen and produces positively charged hydronium ions when they dissolve in water, forming acidic substances |
| base | substances that produce negativly charged hydroxide ions when they dissolve in water, forming basic solutions |
| pH | measure of how acidic or basic a substance is, related to its concentration of hydronium or hydroxide ions. |
| indicator | compound that reacts with acidic or basic solutions and changes color at different pH values |
| neutralization | the interaction between acids and bases in which the properties of each are canceled out by the other abd a neutral solution is produced |
