Document Summary

Solution: homogenous mixture of two or more substances (if it only has one substance it is pure) (needs to be a homogenous mixture) All solutions contain a solute & the solvent: Solvent: the main medium, or the largest quantity/normally a pure substance i. e. water. Solute: the pure substance dissolved in the solvent i. e. salt. A solution can exist in different phases (they don"t have to be a liquid) Phase: any of the three states of matter: liquid, solid or gas. If the water is used as the solvent- the solution is called aqueous. We need to be able to determine the quantity of solute in the given quantity of solvent. Concentration: the amount of a solute dissolved in a given quantity of solution. A concentrated solution has a large amount of solute. A dilute solution has a small amount of solute.
