Solubility Notes
Solution
• A solution is a homogeneous mixture (a mixture where it all looks like one thing) where all of the components are in the same phase (solid, liquid, or gas).
• Solvent – material found in the largest amount.
• Solute- material found in the smallest amount• Ex- salt water– Solvent- water– Solute- salt
• Dissolving-the process of a solute mixing in a solvent
• Soluble- capable of dissolving in a solvent– Ex. Sugar in water
• Insoluble- not capable of dissolving in a solvent– Ex. Oil in water
• Solubility Rules-– General Rule• Likes dissolve likes
– Polar dissolves polar– Non-polar dissolves non-polar
– Other Rules? • Learn in Chemistry
• Saturated solution- a solution that has dissolved a maximum amount of solute, often leaving some solid solute on the bottom.
• Concentration= (amount of solute/amount of solvent)
Suspension
• A Suspension is a homogeneous mixture that all looks the same but is made up of more than one phase, like a solid and liquid, or liquid and gas.
