What is a solvent

Answer explanation

A solvent is something that dissolves a solute.

A solute

• it is the thing that causes something completely different to dissolve.

• it is the name of a particle inside of a solvent, and it is insoluble.

• inside of a specific solvent, it dissolves.

• it is the name of a particle inside of a solvent, and it is 100% insoluble because why not.

Answer explanation

A solute is something that dissolves inside of a solvent.

What is the definition of "soluble?"

• something that cannot dissolve inside of a solvent

• something that can dissolve inside of a solvent

• it means that it can dissolve in literally anything

• it is unable to dissolve inside something else

Answer explanation

Soluble means that a solute is able to dissolve inside of a specified solvent. For example: sugar is soluble because it can dissolve inside of water.

Insoluble: a solute that _____ dissolve inside of a specified solvent.

Answer explanation

Insoluble: a solute that can't dissolve inside of a specified solvent.

What is concentration?

• The amount of solute particles contained in a solvent in a given volume.

• The amount of solvent particles contained in a solute.

• The amount of solvent particles contained in a specified volume.

Answer explanation

The amount of solute particles contained in a solvent in a given amount of volume.

The maximum amount of solute particles in a solvent. What am I?

Answer explanation

Solubility measures the maximum amount of solute particles contained in a solvent.

Saturated solution: a solution in which no more particles can be ___

Answer explanation

a solution in which no more solute particles can be added.

Define "concentrated solution"

• a concentrated solution contained a small amount of solute particles in it.

• a concentrated solution contains a large amount of solute particles in a given volume of solution.

• a measure of the maximum amount of solute particles can dissolve in a certain solvent to form a saturated solution.

• contains much more solute particles than it can dissolve.

Answer explanation

A concentrated solution contains a large amount of solute particles in a given volume of solution.

What's the difference between a dilute solution and a concentrated solution?

• Dilute solutions contain a lot of solute particles, but there can still be more.

  Concentrated solutions contain a small amount of solute particles.

• Dilute solutions contain a small amount of solute particles.

  Concentrated solutions contain a lot of particles, but there can still be more.

Answer explanation

Dilute solutions contain a small amount of solute particles.

Concentrated solutions contain a lot of particles, but there can still be more.

What's the difference between a saturated solution and an unsaturated solution?

• unsaturated solutions are unable to dissolve any more solute particles while a saturated solution is not at it's limit and is still able to dissolve solute particles.

• Saturated solutions are unable to dissolve any more solute particles while an unsaturated solution is not at it's limit and is still able to dissolve solute particles.

Answer explanation

Saturated solutions are unable to dissolve any more solute particles while an unsaturated solution is not at it's limit and is still able to dissolve solute particles.
