Properties of Solutions

Solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved.

• unsaturated solution

• supersaturated solution

• saturated solution

When a certain amount of solvent cannot hold any more solute it is called a ________ solution.

• Diluted
• Saturated

When materials combine to form a mixture, they

• A. keep their original properties.
• B. react to form a new substance with new properties.
• C. combine in a specific ratio.
• D. always change their physical state.

How does a solution become supersaturated?

• dissolve lots of solute in it.
• dissolve a little solute in it. 
• dissolve more solute than you should be able to. 
• dissolve a solvent in it. 

Solubility refers to the ____ of solute that can dissolve in a certain volume or mass of solvent, at a certain temperature.

• Mean

• Range

• Amount

• Mode

Solution where more solute can still be dissolved at the given temperature. 

• Saturated
• Unsaturated
• Supersaturated
• Homogeneous solution

Which one is dilute?

• 10 g of sugar dissolved in 100 ml of water

• 10 g of sugar dissolved in 50 ml of water

• 20 g of sugar dissolved in 100 ml of water

• 20 g of sugar dissolved in 50 ml of water

Which solution is concentrated?

• 25 g of salt in 100 ml of water

• 15 g of salt in 200 ml of water

• 10 g of salt in 400 ml of water

• 5 g of salt in 400 ml of water.

What happens to the concentration of saltwater if you left it boiling on a stove without a lid?

• It becomes diluted as the water evaporates

• It becomes more concentrated as the water evaporates.

• The concentration does not change.
