Understanding Solutions

What is a Solution?
• A solution is a well-mixed mixture.
• A solvent dissolves other substances.• Example: water
• A solute is being dissolved.• Example: salt

Concentration
• Dilute Solution – small amount of solute dissolved in the solvent
• Concentrated Solution – a lot of solute dissolved in the solvent.

Solubility• Solubility is the measure of how much
solute can dissolve in a solvent at a given temperature.
• Saturated solution – no more solute can dissolve

• Unsaturated solution – can dissolve more solute
• Supersaturated – more dissolves than predicted

Factors Affecting Solubility• Pressure – the higher the pressure, the
more that can be dissolved
• Like dissolves like – the more similar the materials the easier they dissolve
• Temperature – the higher the temperature, the more that can be dissolved.
