| Suspension | A mixture in which particles can be seen and easily separated by settling or filtration. |
| Solution | A very well-mixed mixture, having the same properties throughout. |
| Solvent | The part of a solution that is present in the largest amount and dissolves a solute. |
| Solute | The part of a solution present in a lesser amount and dissolved by the solvent. |
| Colloid | A mixture with small undissolved particles that do not settle out. |
| Dilute solution | A mixture that has a little solute dissolved in it. |
| Concentrated solution | A mixture that has a lot of solute dissolved in it. |
| Solubility | A measure of how well a solute can dissolve in a solvent at a given temperature. |
| Saturated solution | A mixture that contains as much solute in it as possible at a given temperature. |
| Unsaturated solution | A mixture in which more of the same solute can be dissolved. |
| Supersaturated solution | A mixture that has more dissolved solute than is predicted by its solubility at the given temperature. |
