| 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 small amount of 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. |
